UG use was equivalent to CP in SNFs that did not limit patient activities Surveillance cultures to guide CP led to a decrease in MRSA acquisition rates


Surveillance cultures to guide CP decreased MRSA acquisition rates and BSI rates; same decrease in BSI rates observed hospital-wide


Surveillance cultures to guide CP and targeted colonization resulted in a decrease in invasive MRSA infection rates


Surveillance cultures to guide CP and targeted decolonization did not reduce nosocomial MRSA infection rates with endemic MRSA prevalence


√ –– UG use was equivalent to CP for prevention of MRSA acquisition


Surveillance cultures to guide CP vs standard CP alone resulted in equivalent MRSA acquisition or infection rates


ICUs √√ √ √


Hospital-wide √√ √ √ –– Bundle of surveillance cultures to guide CP, HH, and institutional culture change was associated with a decrease in MRSA colonization and infection rates No impact of surveillance cultures to guide CP

Universal CP use significantly reduced MRSA acquisition Surveillance cultures to guide CP resulted in a decrease in MRSA acquisition rates


NOTE. BSI, bloodstream infection; CP, contact precautions; HH, hand hygiene; ICU, intensive care unit; MRSA, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus; RCT, randomized controlled trial; SNF, skilled nursing facility; UG, universal gloving.
