“…After excluding the first year of observation, our data demonstrated that patients with Comprehensive surveillance for cancer during that period may have led to a detection bias. 22 However, after excluding the cancer cases that occurred during the first year in our cohort, an increased cancer risk was still observed for patients with cholecystitis. With more than 5 years of followup, the risk remained increased too.…”

“…This indicates that traditional quality indicators in these institutions (such as BSI or CLABSI rates) are likely to be biased and in fact might not be suitable as quality indicators. There is a danger that mandatory and public reporting of these established quality indicators for health care-associated infections will serve as an incentive for reduced blood culture sampling rates and will finally result in an underreporting of BSI rates ("no screening, no health care-associated infections, no punishment") (15,16). This problem has recently been recognized and has led to a debate about the potential of surveillance bias associated with mandatory reporting of health care-associated infections (17)(18)(19).…”
