Our clinical activities continue to expand, given the increasing complexity of infectious complications in immuno-compromised children, the emergence of antibiotic-resistant "superbugs", the spread of infections within the hospital, and the risks of, and preparedness for, bioterrorism.
We have developed quality-of-care indicators for infection control, hospital-acquired blood stream infections, and venous access devices.
