A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a newly licensed nurse about health care-associated infections (HAIs). Which of the following examples should the nurse include as examples of HAIS? (Select All that Apply.)
Explanation & Rationale
A. Ventilator-associated pneumonia is a classic example of a health care–associated infection (HAI) because it develops after exposure to a hospital device. B. Catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI) occur due to indwelling urinary catheters, making them a common HAI. C. Central-line associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI) arise from central venous catheters and are considered HAIs. D. Surgical site infections (SSI) develop after invasive procedures in a healthcare setting, qualifying as HAIs. E. Influenza acquired from a coworker is community-acquired, not healthcare-associated, and therefore does not count as an HAI.
