Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bloodstream infection rates in patients while in hospital

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bloodstream infection rates while in hospital are measured and monitored by infection prevention and control staff as a means to evaluate the effectiveness of their infection control protocols. MRSA rates are calculated by dividing the number of clostridium difficile infections by the total number of patient days. This rate is then multiplied by 10,000 to make a standard MRSA infection rate for each reporting period. The rate is reported per 10,000 patient days. The Canadian benchmark MRSA rate is included in the dataset. Data fields include: Year, Quarter, Health Authority, Health Authority Zone, MRSA Rate, Canadian benchmark.

医院内耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌（MRSA）血行感染率由感染预防与控制工作人员进行测量和监控，以此作为评估其感染控制方案有效性的手段。MRSA感染率通过将艰难梭菌感染数量除以总患者日数来计算。该比率随后乘以10,000，以生成每个报告期的标准MRSA感染率。该比率以每10,000患者日为单位进行报告。数据集中包含加拿大基准MRSA感染率。数据字段包括：年份、季度、卫生机构、卫生机构区域、MRSA感染率、加拿大基准。
