The NHS Infection Intelligence Platform

We describe the NHS Infection Intelligence Platform (IIP) as a comprehensive, dynamic and responsive infection surveillance and research resource for Scotland. The IIP will integrate many different strands of electronic infection data in a safe and secure environment, with the aim of improving public health. It will harness existing health data to support clinicians in improving patient outcomes and reduce harm from community and healthcare acquired infection.
