LabID Event Reporting Training
On This Page
Summary
To calculate proxy measures of multidrug-resistant organism events, exposures, and healthcare acquisition, facilities may choose to monitor Laboratory-identified (LabID) Events. This surveillance method enables a facility to rely almost exclusively on data obtained from the laboratory. The training session covers the protocol, definitions, and procedures used to monitor labID Events.
Audience: This training session is designed for those who will collect and analyze multidrug-resistant organism (MDRO) data in the MDRO and CDAD Module of NHSN. This may include: NHSN Facility Administrator, Patient Safety Primary Contact, Infection Preventionist, Epidemiologist, Microbiologist, Professional Nursing Staff, or Trained Support Staff.
