Automated ICNet HAI Case Line List
Every morning, WebRun opens ICNet, finds every case newly meeting an NHSN healthcare-associated infection definition, such as CLABSI, CAUTI, C. diff, SSI, or an MDRO, logs each to a running Google Sheets line list with the definition met, unit, and key dates, and posts the day's new-case count to Microsoft Teams for the IP team.
How do I keep a running line list of newly confirmed HAI cases from ICNet?
WebRun opens ICNet each morning, finds every case newly confirmed against an NHSN HAI definition like CLABSI, CAUTI, C. diff, SSI, or an MDRO, and logs each to a Google Sheets line list with its unit, onset date, and definition met. It posts the day's new-case count to Microsoft Teams, so IP starts the day with an audit-ready list.
- Every newly confirmed HAI case is on the line list before the morning huddle
- No case is logged twice because each run checks ICNet's case identifier first
- The line list stays in the same format NHSN reporting needs, ready for submission
Built for infection preventionists · infection control committees · hospital epidemiologists · quality and safety teams

Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Does WebRun decide whether a case meets the HAI definition?
No. It only logs cases ICNet has already flagged as meeting an NHSN definition. Confirming or overturning a case classification stays with your infection preventionist.
Will the same case ever be logged twice?
No. Each run checks the line list for the case's ICNet identifier before appending, so a case already logged is skipped on later runs.
Can the line list support our NHSN reporting?
Yes. Each row keeps the definition met, onset date, and unit, the same fields NHSN reporting needs, so your line list stays audit-ready between submissions.
