Central Line-Associated Bloodstream infections (CLABSI) in California Hospitals

This dataset includes central line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI) data reported by California hospitals to the California Department of Public Health (CDPH), Healthcare-Associated Infections (HAI) Program, via the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN). Hospital types include acute care, critical access, long-term acute care, free-standing rehabilitation hospitals, as well as acute rehabilitation units that report data separately.

CLABSI data for each hospital include the number of infections observed (reported) and predicted (based on national baseline data), the number of central line-days, the Standardized Infection Ratio (SIR) and associated 95% confidence intervals, and statistical interpretation to show whether CLABSI incidence was the same (no different), better (lower), or worse (higher) than the national baseline. Central line insertion practices (CLIP) adherence percent for each hospital is calculated from data reported by all critical care locations (i.e., critical care areas, neonatal critical care, and one special care area, "Oncology - Medical/Surgical Critical Care"). In 2021, the CLIP reporting requirement to CDPH via NHSN was discontinued.

CLABSI SIRs are influenced by clinical and infection control practices related to central line insertion and infection control maintenance practices, patient-based risk factors, and surveillance and reporting methods. Health and Safety Code section 1288.55(a)(2) requires general acute care hospitals to report to CDPH all cases of CLABSI identified in their facilities.
