An outbreak of hepatitis A among health care workers
OBJECTIVES. The purpose of this study was to investigate a nosocomial outbreak of hepatitis A that occurred in the burn treatment center of a referral hospital. METHODS. Retrospective cohort and case-control studies were performed to determine acquisition rates and risk factors for transmission. Adjusted infection rates were calculated by week of exposure. A case-control study was conducted to determine potential mechanisms for nosocomial acquisi…
Methods for Estimating Days of Hospitalization Due to Nosocomial Infections
While there is little agreement at the individual patient level of analysis, estimates of mean NI-attributed days of stay for the two methods were essentially the same. The lack of agreement at the individual patient level may reflect fundamental differences in the methods used to derive these estimates: incorporation of noninfected patient data versus exclusive reliance on data from infected patients; and, focus on length of stay rather than the…
