چکیده
Methods Retrospective cohort study. All admitted patients colonized or infected by MRSA, MDR-PAE and Abaumannii from 2005 to 2010 were included. Period I (01/2005-04/ 2008) without active surveillance; Period II (05/2008-12/ 2010), active surveillance in all patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit and in readmitted previously colonized patients. Clonality was studied by PFGE. Charts: Igraph (Y axis shows the days between two consecutive CP;X axis: consecutive number of CP) and U-graph (CP per 10.000 patients days clustered by quarters).

متن کاملOn the non-parametric multivariate control charts in fuzzy environment
Multivariate control chats are generally used in situations where the simultaneous monitoring or control of two or more related quality characteristics is necessary. In most processes in the real world, distribution of the process characteristics are unknown or at least non-normal, so the non-parametric or distribution-free charts are desirable. Most non-parametric statistical process-control t...
