HAI management staff reviewed patients’medical records,communicated with staff in orthopedics department,and put forward advice for SSI control;orthopedics department worked out and implemented detailed infection control measures.The subsequent surveillance showed that the prevalence of SSI in orthopedics ward decreased to 0.38%, infection outbreak was effectively controlled.Conclusion HAI management department played an important role in the finding and control of HAI outbreak.Scientific analysis on monitored data and proper measures adopted by HAI management department and clinical department can effectively control HAI outbreak.
