The impact of discontinuing contact precautions for multidrug resistant organisms at a less than 400-bed level II teaching hospital and a community hospital: A 3-month pilot study

ConclusionsIn this pilot study evaluating the discontinuance of CPs, there was no evidence of an increase in HO MRSA or VRE LabID bacteremia incidence density rates. This practice change may be safely implemented at similar health care facilities.
