Abstract
Commercially available UV powder was applied weekly to high-risk objects within patient rooms and inspected after 48 hours. We found a baseline cleaning rate of 41.8% that increased up to 80% (P < .001) after the institution of weekly electronic feedback (unit rates and rankings) to environmental services, hospital leadership, and unit administrators.Entities:
