Such analysis requires the combination of the microbiological laboratory results with the location and contacts among patients. Currently, this is a cumbersome manual and time-consuming task that includes reading multiple textual reports. We present a visual-interactive interface that offers a set of linked visualizations for the identification of outbreaks and patient contacts. The evaluation of our interface with clinicians and hygienists has shown a high applicability for the task and ease of use.Humancentered computingInformation visualizationVisual analyticsVisual-Interactive Exploration of Pathogen Outbreaks in Hospitals10.2312/eurp.201911339-11
