The information is not available in the suggested format. However, the best available information on methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) blood stream infections is from the mandatory surveillance scheme on health care associated infections, which started in April 2001.The latest annual figures for national health service hospital trusts in the Lancashire area are shown in the table.
| NHS trust | April 2001 to March 2002 | April 2002 to March 2003 | April 2003 to March 2004 | April 2004 to March 2005 |
| East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust | 57 | 66 | 63 | 69 |
| Blackpool, Fylde and Wyre Hospitals NHS Trust | 44 | 40 | 64 | 62 |

The information requested is not available in the required format. However, national data are shown in the table.
Column (A) shows the number of successful claims and column (B), shows the total number of attempted claims. It is not possible however, to provide a breakdown of the data into the question's categories (i)and (ii)—as centrally held data does not differentiate between a patient and a member of their family claiming for negligence.The figures provided are in respect of all claims where Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is stated as an element of the claim, it could be a cause or an injury. The contraction of the MRSA could be a non-negligent consequence of the negligent act.Centrally collected data does not allow us to provide specific figures in respect of the allegation that it was negligent to acquire MRSA i.e. there was a breach of infection/hygiene control policies.The number of claims are shown by notification year, that is the financial year in which the trust was first notified that a claim was going to be made. Because the notification date can be up to three years after the incident, the table above is subject to updates that might place additional claims in certain years.
| Notificationyear | (A) Number of successful claims made, that is damages paid | (B) Number of attempted claims made |
| 2000–01 | 11 | 19 |
| 2001–02 | 21 | 50 |
| 2002–03 | 33 | 91 |
| 2003–04 | 30 | 104 |
| 2004–05 | 16 | 109 |
| (14)Claims are recorded on the NHS Litigation Authority's database in financial years (April/March), rather than calendar years. |
