Healthcare Associated Infections Clinical Trial
Official title:
Cluster-Randomized Controlled Trial of Hospitals to Reduce Healthcare-Associated Infections and Readmissions Through Routine Bathing With Antiseptic Soap and Targeted Use of Nasal Antibiotic Ointment (ABATE Infection Trial)
The ABATE Infection Project is a cluster randomized trial of hospitals to compare two quality
improvement strategies to reduce multi-drug resistant organisms and healthcare-associated
infections in non-critical care units. The two strategies to be evaluated are:
- Arm 1: Routine Care Routine policy for showering/bathing
- Arm 2: Decolonization Use of chlorhexidine as routine soap for showering or bed bathing
for all patients Mupirocin x 5 days if MRSA+ by history, culture, or screen
Note that enrolled "subjects" represents 53 individual HCA Hospitals (representing ~190
non-critical care units) that have been randomized.
