Easy peasy, it's definitely a rate. I mean, who doesn't love a good ol' infection rate to start their day?

I'm not sure, but I think it could also be C) proportion, as it compares the number of infections to the total number of central line days.

Hmm, I was leaning towards C, but D makes more sense. Gotta love those tricky medical terms, am I right?

I agree with Basilia, because it measures the frequency of infections over a specific period of time.

I think the answer is D. It's a rate, as it measures the number of infections per a specific time period (1000 central line days).
