Hand hygiene (HH) is the single most important factor in the prevention of health care-acquired infections. The 3 most frequently reported methods of measuring HH compliance are: (1) direct observation, (2) self-reporting by health care workers (HCWs), and (3) indirect calculation based on HH product usage. This article presents the results of a 12-month multicenter collaboration assessing HH c...
INTRODUCTION Little is known about the mechanisms through which intensivist physician staffing influences patient outcomes. We aimed to assess the effect of closed-model intensive care on evidence-based ventilatory practice in patients with acute lung injury (ALI). METHODS We conducted a secondary analysis of a prospective population-based cohort of 759 patients with ALI who were alive and ve...
run-out-table (rot) is located between last finishing stand and down coiler in a hot strip mill. as the hot steel strip passes from rot, water jets impact on it from top and bottom and strip temperature decreases approximately from 800-950 °c to 500-750°c. the temperature history that strip experience while passing through rot affects significantly the metallurgical and mechanical properties, s...
BACKGROUND Intensive care units (ICUs) are high-risk settings for the transmission of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin-resistant enterococcus (VRE). METHODS In a cluster-randomized trial, we evaluated the effect of surveillance for MRSA and VRE colonization and of the expanded use of barrier precautions (intervention) as compared with existing practice (contro...
OBJECTIVE Clinical protocols may decrease unnecessary variation in care and improve compliance with desirable therapies. We evaluated whether highly protocolized ICUs have superior patient outcomes compared with less highly protocolized ICUs. DESIGN Observational study in which participating ICUs completed a general assessment and enrolled new patients 1 day each week. PATIENTS A total of 6...
IMPORTANCE Intensive care unit (ICU) telemedicine (TM) programs have been promoted as improving access to intensive care specialists and ultimately improving patient outcomes, but data on effectiveness are limited and conflicting. OBJECTIVE To examine the impact of ICU TM on mortality rates and length of stay (LOS) in an integrated health care system. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS Obser...
RATIONALE Prior studies supported an association between intensive care unit (ICU) organizational model or staffing patterns and outcome in critically ill patients. OBJECTIVES To examine the association of closed versus open models with patient mortality across adult ICUs in King County (WA). METHODS Cohort study of patients with acute lung injury (ALI). MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS ICU ...
antibiotic resistance of intensive care unit (icu) born aerobic gram-negative bacteria was evaluated during a six months period at a teaching hospital in tehran, and determination of the validity of the results obtained from disc diffusion tests, using discs manufactured in iran. disc susceptibility tests using iranian and standard discs (diffusion discs available in international markets) were...
Intensive care units (ICUs) are special areas in hospitals for patients with severe and life-threatening diseases. ICUs of several categories, such as neonatal ICUs, cardiac neurological surgical etc. The ICUs’ may show a high susceptibility hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) depending on underlying disease, duration stay treatment. considered potential reservoirs (opportunistic) pathogenic mi...
