Requirements Perform surveillance for SSI following at least one NHSN operative procedure category Table 1 as indicated in the Patient Safety Monthly Reporting Plan CDC . Collect SSI numerator and operative procedure category denominator data on all procedures included in the selected procedure categories for at least one month. A procedure must meet the NHSN definition of an operative procedure in order to be included in the surveillance. SSI monitoring requires active patient-based prospective surveillance.
