| CDC Infection Surveillance Project |
|
The Renal Network, Inc. has been invited to participate with the Centers for Disease Control in a project to monitor infections in vascular access and the bloodstream.
Participation is voluntary. Orientation will be provided by the CDC via telephone conference call. Data entry is performed through a secure Internet site. Monthly, participating centers will report the number of chronic hemodialysis patients treated and supply information on patients hospitalized or treated with an intravenous antimicrobial. Reports will be mailed to participating facilities by CDC. Dialysis centers using the Internet data entry site will have ongoing access to their data.
For more information contact Bridget Carson at the Network office, or visit the CDC Web site: http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/hip/Dialysis/dsn.htm
