Abstract

We evaluated whether universal chlorhexidine bathing (decolonization) with or without COVID-19 intensive training impacted COVID-19 rates in 63 nursing homes (NHs) during the 2020-2021 Fall/Winter surge. Decolonization was associated with a 43% lesser rise in staff case-rates (P < .001) and a 52% lesser rise in resident case-rates (P < .001) versus control.

我们评估了在 2020-2021 年秋冬季激增期间，63 家疗养院（NHs）在进行或不进行 COVID-19 强化培训的情况下，普及洗必泰沐浴（去菌）是否会影响 COVID-19 感染率。与对照组相比，去菌落与工作人员病例数的上升幅度降低了 43%（P < .001），与居民病例数的上升幅度降低了 52%（P < .001）。
