Study Summary
This study will test if doctors, nurses and other people who take care of patients in hospitals wearing gloves and gown for all contact with patients in an intensive care unit (ICU) will: * Decrease the chance of patients getting an infection while in the hospital * Decrease the chance of patients picking up bacteria as a result of being in the hospital * Decrease the time a patient spends in the ICU or in the hospital * Increase the frequency of adverse events The study will also look at whether making doctors, nurses and other people who take care of patients wear gloves and gown for all contact with patients will decrease the amount of time healthcare workers spend with patients. This study will gather information by comparing what happens in ICUs that continue to do what they were doing before the study with what happens in ICUs that require healthcare workers to wear gloves and gown for all contact with patients. This study will provide information that will help to make being in the hospital safer for all patients.
