Changes to costs were defined as the cost of implementing the bundle minus cost savings from fewer infections. Health benefits gained from fewer infections were measured in quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs). Cost-effectiveness was evaluated using the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio and net monetary benefit of adopting the cleaning bundle over existing hospital cleaning practices. Results: Implementing the cleaning bundle cost $349 000 Australian dollars (AUD) and generated AUD$147 500 in cost savings. Infections prevented under the cleaning bundle returned a net monetary benefit of AUD$1.02 million and an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of $4684 per QALY gained. There was an 86% chance that the bundle was cost-effective compared with existing hospital cleaning practices. Conclusions: A bundled, evidence-based approach to improving hospital cleaning is a cost-effective intervention for reducing the incidence of HAIs.]]> Thu 18 Aug 2022 11:06:45 AEST ]]> An environmental cleaning bundle and health-care-associated infections in hospitals (REACH): a multicentre, randomised trial https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:37048 Fri 07 Aug 2020 15:02:13 AEST ]]> Cost effectiveness of temporary isolation rooms in acute care settings in Singapore https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51335 Fri 01 Sep 2023 10:18:03 AEST ]]>
