| Estimates of admission CRE prevalence and CRE acquisition rates in the study ICUs using SCS.Timepoint: At 24-48 hours of ICU admission, every week, at ICU discharge or death or until colonized with CRE | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 2. Risk factors associated with CRE colonization on admission and CRE acquisition during ICU stay. 3. Estimates of CRE prevalence detected by routine clinical cultures versus surveillance cultures. 4. Estimates of admission and discharge CRE rate ratios in the ICUs using LCS strategy that are comparable to SCS strategy. 5. Clinical risk factor and clinical culture information role in augmenting the LCS strategy. 6. Baseline infection prevention practices in study ICUs focusing on environmental cleaning practices of immediate patient environment, hand hygiene practice and contact isolation precaution practices for CRE positive patients. 7. CRE incidence rate ratios using the optimal LCS strategy before and after the infection prevention intervention Timepoint: 3,4,7 : At 24-48 hours of ICU admission, every week, at ICU discharge or death or until colonized with CRE 2,5,6 : derived post data collection and analysis | — |
