Abstract excerpt

Even with good surveillance programmes, hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) are not always recognized and this may lead to an outbreak. In order to reduce this risk, we propose a model for prompt detection of HAIs, based on the use of a real-time epidemiological information system called VIGI@ct...
