Measurable Hospital-Acquired Conditions (Composite Patient Safety and Adverse Events Indicator) Statewide Rate, California (LGHC Indicator)

This dataset contains the statewide composite patient safety and Adverse Events indicator (PSI) rate used to determine the “Incidence of measurable hospital-acquired conditions” rate for the Let’s Get Healthy California Initiative. PSI rates may not be comparable across years as significant changes were made to composition, definition, and calculation of PSI since 2018. The current composite PSI includes the following component indicators: pressure ulcer, iatrogenic pneumothorax, in-hospital fall with hip fracture, postoperative hemorrhage or hematoma, postoperative acute kidney injury requiring dialysis, postoperative respiratory failure, perioperative pulmonary embolism or deep vein thrombosis, postoperative sepsis, postoperative wound dehiscence, abdominopelvic accidental puncture or laceration.
