摘要: Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) are that not present or incubating at the time of healthcare (e.g., hospital, long-term care, etc.) admission encounter (1,2). Although HAIs can become clinically apparent during after hospitalization, majority manifest hospitalization. This is particularly true in intensive care unit (ICU) patients, population delivery system with highest rates HAIs. ICU patients most severely ill and have rate use invasive devices procedures. Most associated devices, e.g., central venous catheters (CVCs), mechanical ventilation, urinary catheterization, procedures, surgical
