Description

Summary

The Swap Out Trial is a cluster randomized controlled trial of HCA hospitals, evaluating the non-inferiority of two decolonization regimens:

Arm 1 Routine Care: ICU nasal decolonization with mupirocin twice daily for 5 days in the context of chlorhexidine for daily bathing; Arm 2 Intervention: ICU nasal decolonization with iodophor twice daily for 5 days in the context of chlorhexidine for daily bathing Note: that enrolled "subjects" represents 137 individual HCA Hospitals (representing ~235 ICUs) that have been randomized.

Official Title

Cluster-randomized Non-inferiority Trial Comparing Mupirocin vs Iodophor for Nasal Decolonization of ICU Patients to Assess Impact on S. Aureus Clinical Cultures and All-cause Bloodstream Infection During Routine Chlorhexidine Bathing
