This is a competingrenewalapplicationfor the EasternMassachusettsPreventionEpicenter,whichincludes 16 health care institutionst:hestate'stwo largesthealthplans,caringfor over halfthe state'spopulation;six adultacademic referralcenters;a cancer hospital;a pediatricacademic healthcenter;five community hospitals;and a rehabilitationfacility.The Epicenterwill pursuefouraims that buildon itswork of the past eightyears. These includedevelopingsurrogatemarkersfor surveillanceof healthcare-associatedinfections andotheradverseevents,and assessmentand preventionof antimicrobialresistance.We will 1) Test a claims-basedalgorithmwe developedfor identifyinghospitalswith highratesof surgicalsiteinfection(SSI) follm,ing,,c,o_ronary artery bypassgrafting(CABG).
