Leonard A Mermel1, Julie A Jefferson2, Michael A Smit2, Dianne B Auld2.   

Abstract

A multimodal program focused on preventing nosocomial respiratory viral infections. Definite cases per 1,000 discharges increased 1.3-fold in hospital units screening visitors for respiratory viral symptoms during the 2017-2018 respiratory virus season but not during the 2016-2017 season. Definite cases per 1,000 discharges increased 3.1-fold in hospital units that did not screen visitors either season.
