Early recognition and response to increases in surgical site infections using optimized statistical process control charts—the Early 2RIS Trial: a multicenter cluster randomized controlled trial with stepped wedge design

Early recognition and response to increases in surgical site infections using optimized statistical process control charts—the Early 2RIS Trial: a multicenter cluster randomized controlled trial with stepped wedge design

Abstract Background Surgical site infections (SSIs) cause significant patient suffering. Surveillance and feedback of SSI rates is an evidence-based strategy to reduce SSIs, but traditional surveillance methods are slow and prone to bias. The objective of this cluster randomized controlled trial (RC...
