Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if surface disinfection with organosilane associated with traditional cleaning reduces the incidence of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) in intensive care units when compared with traditional cleaning alone.

Intervention

Other:
• Surface disinfection with Organosilane
Organosilane will be sprayed on the surfaces, using an atomizer. When the environment has been completely covered (i.e., when all surfaces and equipment have a slightly damp film), we will proceed with the second phase of the disinfection of all heavily touched surfaces. surfaces of the bed, with a microfiber cloth with organosilane.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Incidence of healthcare associated infections		6 months
Secondary	Contamination of environmental surfaces by multi-resistant microorganisms	We will collect environmental samples from 4 surfaces highly touched by the patient, health team and family (bed rails, monitor and infusion pump buttons, meal table or procedure table, and IV drip stand) before and after the intervention. (end of the 6 months). For analysis of the environmental samples, characterization of the density and microbiological profile of biofilms on the different surfaces of the ICU beds will be performed using large-scale DNA sequencing techniques associated with bioinformatics analysis.	6 months
Secondary	Incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia		6 months
Secondary	Incidence of central line-associated blood stream infections		6 months
Secondary	Incidence of catheter-associated urinary tract infection		6 months
Secondary	Intensive care unit length of stay costs		6 months
