BACKGROUND: Almost all studies investigating prolongation of stay because of nosocomial infections (NI) took into account all cases of NI, regardless whether they were associated with transmission of nosocomial pathogens (and therefore preventable) or not. We investigated the prolongation of intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay (LOS) because of transmission-associated NI (TANI) in a prospective study on 5...
