Survey of Infection Prevention Best Practices in a University OB/GYN Service: Barriers, Obstacles, and Uncertainties

even though it was performed in an actual patient room. We inoculated HTSs with CRE concentrations that were likely higher than would be seen under patient-care conditions, and we achieved a nearly complete reduction. These results support the likelihood that the lower burden of contamination during actual patient care would also be adequately reduced by UV treatment. UV technology is an effective method to disinfect CRE from high-touch surfaces in the patient-care environment. Methods such as this may become increasingly important as antimicrobialresistant Gram-negative pathogens continue to emerge. The short cycle time makes UV disinfection a realistic option for daily disinfection of patient rooms. Studies are needed to evaluate the efficacy of this technology to decrease patient infections and transmission of pathogens in the healthcare setting.
