Behavioral Interventions to Reduce Infections in Pediatric Long-term Care Facilities
Children in pediatric long-term care facilities (pLTCF) represent a highly vulnerable population and infectious outbreaks occur frequently, resulting in significant morbidity, mortality, and resource use. The purpose of this quasi-experimental trial using time series analysis was to assess the impact of a 4-year theoretically based behavioral intervention on infection prevention practices and clinical outcomes in three pLTCF (288 beds) in New Yor…
Predictors of flu vaccination among urban Hispanic children and adults
BACKGROUND: Flu vaccination is effective for preventing infection, but coverage levels in the USA remain low-especially among racial/ethnic minorities. This study examines factors associated with flu vaccination in a predominantly Hispanic community in Manhattan, New York. METHODS: Households were recruited during the 2006-2007 and 2007-2008 flu seasons. Primary household respondents were interviewed to determine knowledge of flu transmission/tre…
Factors Associated With Variation in Estimates of the Cost of Resistant Infections
BACKGROUND: Existing estimates of the costs of antimicrobial resistance exhibit broad variability, and the contributing factors are not well understood. This study examines factors that contribute to variation in these estimates. METHODS: Studies of the costs of resistant infections (1995-2009) were identified, abstracted, and stated in comparable terms (eg, converted to 2007 U.S. dollars). Linear regressions were conducted to assess how costs in…
CMS Changes in Reimbursement for HAIs
BACKGROUND: The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) promulgated regulations commencing October 1, 2008, which deny payment for selected conditions occurring during the hospital stay and are not present on admission. Three of the 10 hospital-acquired conditions covered by the new CMS policy involve healthcare-associated infections, which are a common, expensive, and often preventable cause of inpatient morbidity and mortality. OBJECTI…
