The prevalence and spread of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPA) is a global public health problem. This study aims to identify the risk factors of CRPA infection and construct a machine learning model to provide a prediction tool for ...
Hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP) is prevalent in the neuro-intensive care unit (NICU), significantly increasing susceptibility to infections with multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs), which result in high mortality rates and substantial healthcare ...
OBJECTIVE: To develop a machine learning (ML)-based admission screening model for hospital-acquired (HA) influenza using routinely available data to support early clinical intervention.
Hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) are serious complication for patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS), often resulting in poor functional outcomes. However, no existing model can specifically predict HAI in AIS patients. Therefore, we employed t...

BACKGROUND: Hand hygiene is a critical component of infection prevention in healthcare settings. Innovative strategies are required to enhance hand hygiene practices among patients and healthcare workers (HCWs).
BACKGROUND: Acinetobacter baumanni infection is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Early recognition of patients at risk for infection allows early proper treatment and is associated with improved outcomes. T...
BACKGROUND: Among no-touch automated disinfection devices, ultraviolet-C (UV-C) radiation has been proven to be one of the most effective against a broad spectrum of micro-organisms causing healthcare-associated infections.
