New hospital system detects outbreaks, preventing infections and saving lives and costs.
Scientists from the University of Pittsburgh, working with UPMC, have developed a system called EDS-HAT that uses genomic sequencing to detect and stop infectious disease outbreaks in hospitals.
Over two years, this system prevented 62 infections, saved five lives, and cut costs by almost $700,000.
The findings suggest that a similar national system could be beneficial for early outbreak detection across the country.
