  1. Incidence of surgical site infections (SSIs) following hip arthroplasty surgery in participating hospitals in Italy from 2010 to 2019. The table shows the number of SSIs, the number of surveilled procedures, and the number of participating hospitals for each year. The total number of SSIs and surveilled procedures over the 10-year period is also shown
