The Healthcare-Associated Infections Surveillance Network (HAI-Net) is a European network for the surveillance of healthcare-associated infections (HAI). The network is coordinated by the ECDC.

Activities of the Healthcare-associated Infections Surveillance Network (HAI-Net) are:

  1. ECDC surveillance of surgical site infections (SSIs) (included in the TESSy system);
  2. ECDC surveillance of HAI in intensive care units (ICUs) (included in the TESSy system);
  3. ECDC point prevalence survey (PPS) of healthcare-associated infections (HAI) and antimicrobial use in acute care hospitals;
  4. surveillance of HAI and related practices in European long-term care facilities (LTCFs);
  5. supporting capacity building for the surveillance of Clostridium difficile infections (CDIs);
  6. infection control structure and process indicators (SPI);
