The national recommendations promote the applying of the Contact Additional Precautions (CAP) with the Standard Precautions (SP) to limit the transmission of multi-drug resistant (MDR) bacteria. However, that could entail more costs and a reduction of quality of the patient care.

Detailed description

The national recommendations promote the applying of the Contact Additional Precautions (CAP) with the Standard Precautions (SP) to limit the transmission of multi-drug resistant (MDR) bacteria. However, that could entail more costs and a reduction of quality of the patient care. This study seeks showing it in way of a non-interventional research in a resuscitation unit. Two periods are compared for noticing the rates of MDR bacteria contaminations.
