Abstract
This article provides a structured review of the English literature fo cusing on areas that theoretically rose the greatest risk for nosocomi al infections in ambulatory care. The review describes variations in m ethods of surveillance and a general paucity of studies that provide r eliable estimates of the risk for infections in the ambulatory environ ment.
