SIR 2015 Rebaseline • “Rebaseline” refers to the process of updating NHSN’s original HAI baselines to continue driving the progress of preventing HAIs. • The 2015 rebaseline updates both the source of aggregate data and the risk adjustment methodology used to create the baselines. • Risk adjustment refers to the processes used to account for the differences in risk that may impact the number of infections reported by a hospital, such as type of patient care location, bed size of the hospital or patient age. • When the data are risk-adjusted, it makes it possible to more meaningfully compare hospital performance. • Previously calculated SIRs had different baseline years for each infection type and facility type.
