Detection and registration of infections related to medical care in the Ural and Siberian Federal Districts in 2021

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Despite the important advances in the development of healthcare and the introduction of new and safe diagnosis and treatment technologies of various diseases, the problem of preventing health care-associated infections (HAIs) does not lose its relevance.

AIM: This study aimed to examine the features of the detection and registration of HAIs in the Ural and Siberian Federal Districts in 2021, to conduct a rating assessment of the quality of detection and registration of infections, followed by ranking of subjects to assess the functions of the epidemiological surveillance system of HAIs.

MATERIALS AND METHODS: The article presents a data analysis of the officially registered HAI cases within medical organizations of Ural and Siberian Federal Districts. The analysis was conducted based on the data from Federal Statistical Observation Forms No. 2 “Information on infectious and parasitic diseases” and No. 23–17 “Information on outbreaks of infectious diseases” and additional request materials “Information on medical manipulations and contingents treated” for 2021 and changes within 7 years (2015–2021) in comparison with indicators for the whole Russian Federation.

RESULTS: Statistical data were provided by the Departments of Rospotrebnadzor from Irkutsk, Kemerovo, Kurgan, Novosibirsk, Omsk, Sverdlovsk, Tomsk, Tyumen, Chelyabinsk regions; Altai, Transbaikal, Krasnoyarsk Territory; republics of Altai, Buryatia, Tyva, Khakassia; Khanty–Mansi Autonomous Okrug–Yugra, and Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug. Data for the Russian Federation were provided by the Federal Center for Hygiene and Epidemiology of Rospotrebnadzor according the duties of Ural–Siberian Scientific and Methodological Center for the Prevention of Health Care-associated Infections.

CONCLUSION: Based on the analysis results, the rating assessment of HAI’s detection and registration quality in Ural and Siberian Federal Districts and the ranking of subjects taking into account the functioning activities of the HAI epidemiological surveillance system were conducted. The information presented in the article is intended for employees of Rospotrebnadzor bodies and organizations, medical organizations, educational organizations, and executive authorities in healthcare.
