N/A: Not all hospitals report all data for all measures

Note: The health care-associated infection (HAI) data are reported as standardized infection ratios (SIRs).  A SIR greater than 1.0 means that more HAIs were observed in a facility or state than predicted, and a SIR less than 1.0 means there were fewer HAIs observed than predicted.  A score of 0, meaning no infections, is best. So, for example, a hospital with a SIR of 1.50 reported 50% more infections than would be predicted from national rates, and one with a SIR of 0.70 reported 30% fewer infections than national rates for its mix of ICUs.

NA: Not all hospitals report health care-associated infection data.  For more information, see Methodology.
