local.description.resumoThis article presents our viewpoint based on our combined experience in transplantation, transplant infectious disease complications and health-care-associated infection (HAI) tracking systems. Quality metrics for transplant infectious disease should allow us to track donor safety, perform vaccinations, control prophylaxis adherence rates, and monitor the rates of surgical-site infections (SSIs) and other infections. However, even with targeted screening using highly sensitive pre-transplantation tests, adequate vaccination and prophylaxis, there may be some gaps in the process that can impact the outcomes. Transplant programmes should pay close attention to and document prophylaxis failures, HAI rates, rehospitalizations and excessive immunosuppression. With this in mind, we chose 16 indicators that we believe would demonstrate the quality of the transplant programme in each phase of the process, which may impact the infection risk.
