BACKGROUND: Health care-associated infection (HAI) surveillance is vital for safety in health care settings. It helps identify infection risk factors, enhancing patient safety and quality improvement. However, HAI surveillance is complex, demanding s...
This work describes a novel artificial intelligence-based training and monitoring system (AITMS) that was used to control and prevent nosocomial infections (NIs) by improving the skills of donning/removing personal protective equipment (PPE). The AIT...
The goal of this study was to evaluate matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-iime of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR-S) as diagnostic alternatives to DNA-based methods for the detection ...
BACKGROUND: Machine learning (ML) models for early identification of patients at risk of hospital-acquired urinary tract infection (HA-UTI) may enable timely and targeted preventive and therapeutic strategies. However, clinicians are often challenged...
