• Infection surveillance: percentage of deep incisional surgical site infections (SSIs) in femoro-popliteal bypass procedures performed, during the 6 month time period. This updates a previously published measure summary.

• Infection surveillance: percentage of deep incisional surgical site infections (SSIs) in hip prosthesis procedures performed, during the 6 month time period. This updates a previously published measure summary.

• Infection surveillance: percentage of deep incisional surgical site infections (SSIs) in knee prosthesis procedures performed, during the 6 month time period. This updates a previously published measure summary.

• Infection surveillance: percentage of deep incisional/organ space surgical site infections (SSIs) (in the chest incision site) in coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) procedures performed, during the 6 month time period. This updates a previously published measure summary.

• Infection surveillance: percentage of deep incisional/organ space surgical site infections (SSIs) (in the donor incision site) in coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) (involving chest and donor incisions) procedures performed, during the 6 month time period. This updates a previously published measure summary.

• Infection surveillance: percentage of deep incisional/organ space surgical site infections (SSIs) in abdominal hysterectomy procedures performed, during the 6 month time period. This updates a previously published measure summary.

• Infection surveillance: percentage of deep incisional/organ space surgical site infections (SSIs) in elective partial or total colectomy procedures (where there is an anastomosis but no stoma formed) performed, during the 6 month time period. This updates a previously published measure summary.

• Infection surveillance: percentage of deep incisional/organ space surgical site infections (SSIs) in lower segment caesarean section procedures performed, during the 6 month time period. This updates a previously published measure summary.

• Infection surveillance: percentage of deep incisional/organ space surgical site infections (SSIs) in open abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) procedures performed, during the 6 month time period. This updates a previously published measure summary.

• Infection surveillance: percentage of superficial incisional surgical site infections (SSIs) (in the chest incision site) in coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) procedures performed, during the 6 month time period. This updates a previously published measure summary.
