The following data are being requested by the Louisiana Department of Health and Hospitals:

• Central line-associated bloodstream infections in all critical care locations
• Surgical site infections for colon and hysterectomy procedures (inpatient procedures only)
• Catheter-associated urinary tract infections in all critical care locations
• Ventilator-associated pneumonia in all critical care locations
• Dialysis events from outpatient dialysis facilities
