Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the impact of implementing a daily target sheet on meeting quality indicators and reducing healthcare-associated infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms in an adult intensive care unit.
Results: Improvement was observed in compliance with the evaluated indicators: taking cultures prior to the start of antibiotics, daily awakening test, use of propofol maximum 72 h, and use of daily objective sheet (P<0.05), for these indicators. Multidrug-resistant infections decreased from 10 to 2 cases, with a reduction in the healthcare-associated infections rate from 35.1 to 28.4 per 100 discharges (P<0.05).

期刊介绍:
BMC Research Notes publishes scientifically valid research outputs that cannot be considered as full research or methodology articles. We support the research community across all scientific and clinical disciplines by providing an open access forum for sharing data and useful information; this includes, but is not limited to, updates to previous work, additions to established methods, short publications, null results, research proposals and data management plans.
