HELICS is an international network aiming at the collection, analysis and dissemination of valid data on the risks of nosocomial infections in European hospitals. This project will provide new insights on prevention and management of hospital infection in the era of increased of susceptible patients (increasing number of elderly and also of immuno-compromised patients) and in the era of emerging infectious diseases related to new agents, to anti-microbial resistance bacteria, to increased social mobility and exchanges of population, and increased use of invasive techniques (i.e. endoscopic surgery, interventionnal radiology). Appropriate guidelines from this project will be able to reduce the incidence of hospital infections and will provide methods for dealing with future issues. It will provide an excellent mean to develop European trans-national collaboration and will help for experience sharing and stimulate juniors physicians and health care providers to be involve in this new field of medicine.
