- W2007675894 abstract "Abstract Objectives: To review procedures currently practiced in a Brazilian general hospital and to eliminate ineffective and inefficient practices. To measure the resulting cost improvements based on rigid hospital financing control. Design: Implementation of surveillance and control programs and prevalence surveys to detect ineffective and inefficient practices. Participants: The study institution is a 130-bed general care facility affiliated with the Brazilian federal government. There were approximately 4,600 admissions per year during the study period (1986- 1989). Results: Instituting infection control measures and eliminating ineffective practices resulted in the following: an overall decrease in wound infection rates from 24.4% in 1987 to 3.45% in 1989; a 71% reduction in the global incidence of infection in the intensive care unit; a 74% reduction in the surgical prophylactic use of antibiotics; and a total savings of approximately $2 million (US dollars). Conclusions: During the period from 1986 to 1989, the infection control committee was able to decrease the overall wound infection rate from 24.4% in 1987 to 3.45% in 1989. This eliminated special health problems and improved patient care and cost-effectiveness for our hospital." @default.
