Summary
Ten years ago, in January 1997, data collection for the German national nosocomial infection surveillance system was established and KISS was able to demonstrate a beneficial effect from ongoing surveillance activities and appropriate feedback to the users in combination with reference data for ventilator associated pneumonia, primary bloodstream infections and surgical site infections.
