HAIC Case Definition: Invasive Staphylococcus aureus (SA) disease: isolation of SA from a normally sterile site in a resident of the surveillance area in 2016. Cases of disease are classified into one of three epidemiologic classifications. A case is classified as hospital-onset (HO) if the SA culture was obtained on or after the fourth calendar day of hospitalization, where admission is hospital day 1; as healthcare-associated community-onset (HACO) if the culture was obtained in an outpatient setting or before the fourth calendar day of hospitalization and had one or more of the following: 1) a history of hospitalization, surgery, dialysis, or residence in a long term care facility in the previous year, or 2) the presence of a central vascular catheter (CVC) within 2 days prior to MRSA culture; and as community-associated (CA) if none of the previously mentioned criteria are met. Cases were classified as MRSA or MSSA based on results from local clinical microbiology laboratory testing.
