The complication measures at Admin De Servicios Medicos Puerto Ric provide information about the medical problems some inpatients might experience while admitted in the hospital. Admitted patients sometimes get other injuries, conditions or complications that may be life threatening. When hospitals follow best practices for treating patients, serious complications are often prevented.
The complication measures evaluate serious events such as healthcare-associated infections (HAI) and complications after certain surgical procedures.
Healthcare Associated Infections
The healthcare-associated infections (HAI) measures provide information on infections that happen while the patient is in the hospital. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) collects this information and encourages hospitals to use CDC-recommended infection control steps to prevent healthcare-associated infections.
