Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility of using online surveillance form in reporting healthcare associated infections. This research is a quantitative research with a pre-experimental one group pre-test – post-test design method. The intervention given is giving the form manually and giving the form online. Respondents in this study were Infection Prevention and Control Link Nurses in the inpatient, intensive, and operating rooms at the Bali Mandara General Hospital with a total of 37 nurses. Data collection was carried out from January 2020 to December 2021 using the healthcare associated infections reporting form developed by the hospital infection control team. Data were analysed using paired T-test with 95% confidence level. Phlebitis reported significantly increase after the application of online surveillance form. The nurses’ compliance on filling the form both device-related and surgical site infection surveillance as the enactment of online form is 100%, with on time reporting increasing from 73,2% to 98,8%. Nurses assume that the accessible and simplicity of the online forms encourage them to fill the forms completely. Delays in reporting surveillance still occur and need encouragement from supervisor to improve compliance.
