The role of gowns in preventing nosocomial transmission of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA): gown use in MRSA control.

J Grant1, L Ramman-Haddad, N Dendukuri, M D Libman.   

Abstract

During a 2-year period, a standard isolation protocol for control of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus was compared with a similar protocol in which gowns were not used but the availability of alcohol-based hand disinfectant was increased. Intervention wards had 0.10 fewer new MRSA transmissions per ward per month, compared with control wards (P was not significant).
