RESUMO
We prospectively evaluated direct costs of contact precautions using on-site observation. Additional mean costs per patient day were calculated for extra materials used, increased workload, and one-off isolation activities. The cost of contact precautions was $158.90 (95% confidence interval, $124.90â$192.80) per patient day. Infect Control Hosp Epidemiol 2018;39:101-103.
