Basics of surveillance--an overview.

J M Pottinger1, L A Herwaldt, T M Perl.   

Abstract

Surveillance of nosocomial infections is the foundation of an infection control program. This article describes components of a surveillance system, methods for surveillance, methods for case-finding, and data sources. We encourage the epidemiology team to use this background information as they design surveillance systems that meet the goals of their individual institution's infection control program.
