Thanks Marilyn and others I have this data – ANZICS is as you know ICU data and useful. Would be great to also know rates in non-ICU settings eg oncology, BMT etc.

The ANZICS data is available on their website

Dear All

I am working on an urgent project and wondering if anyone knows of any current, valid and reliable Australian CLABSI rate data available anywhere in public domain? I am especially interested in incidence, attributable morbidity, cost etc.

I suspect that ANZICs has the best dataset but it is not freely available outside of the ANZICs network.

In the absence of this type of detailed data I am assuming extrapolation is the best approach. Grateful for any insights.

How I long for greater transparency of data for all HAIs.

Warm regards
Cath
