2022 National and State Healthcare-Associated Infections (HAI) Progress Report Shows Improvements in Preventing HAIs in Acute Care Hospitals |
|---|
CDC has released the 2022 National and State Healthcare-Associated Infections (HAI) Progress Report, which shows progress in preventing several important HAIs in acute care hospitals (ACHs). This is the first HAI Progress Report to show decreases in HAIs since the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. This is a notable accomplishment for ACHs, given the ongoing challenges healthcare facilities continue to manage. Decreases in the standardized infection ratio (SIR)* from 2021 to 2022 for some HAIs in ACHs included: - 19% decrease in ventilator-associated events (VAE)
- 16% decrease in hospital-onset methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteremia
- 12% decrease in catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI)
- 9% decrease in central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI)
- 3% decrease in hospital-onset Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI)

The report includes data submitted to CDC’s National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) across four healthcare settings: ACHs, critical access hospitals (CAHs), inpatient rehabilitation facilities (IRFs) and long-term acute care hospitals (LTACHs).
The report showed little progress in reducing HAIs in other healthcare settings. - Among IRFs, there was a 9% decrease in hospital-onset CDI infection, otherwise there were no significant changes in the 2022 SIRs compared with 2021.
- Among LTACHs, there were no significant changes in 2022 SIRs compared with 2021.
The 2022 National and State HAI Progress Report highlights the need for healthcare providers to continue to: CDC remains committed to protecting patients and promoting safety and quality in health care. CDC will continue partnering with healthcare facilities and other federal and local public health agencies to strengthen healthcare quality and improve patient safety across the United States.

* The Standardized Infection Ratio (SIR) is a summary statistic used to track HAI prevention progress over time; lower SIRs are better. The SIR compares the number of infections in a facility or state to the number of infections that were predicted, based on previous years of reported data.
