Abstract

Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) pose a significant threat to patient safety and can lead to adverse outcomes if not promptly identified and treated. Implementing robust surveillance systems to identify and monitor HAIs allows for early detection, prompt intervention, and evaluation of infection control measures.
This essay explores the importance of surveillance systems in healthcare facilities and their role in preventing the spread of HAIs. By examining the methodology, discussion, and conclusions surrounding this topic, this paper aims to highlight the critical role surveillance plays in improving patient outcomes and reducing healthcare costs.
