Economic Evaluation of Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci (VRE) Control Practices: A Systematic Review

ConclusionMost studies show that some form of VRE screening and use of Contact Precautions is cost-effective. The low study quality and heterogeneity of interventions and comparators precludes definitive conclusions about the cost effectiveness of specific VRE control interventions. Additional high-quality economic evaluations are needed to strengthen the available evidence.
