Enhanced terminal room disinfection is a novel, promising, but still unproven strategy for the prevention of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) due to selected multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacterial pathogens. The investigators will perform a large prospective, multicenter study enhanced terminal room disinfection to 1) determine the efficacy and feasibility of enhanced terminal room disinfection strategies to prevent HAIs and 2) determine the impact of environmental contamination on acquisition of MDR-pathogens among hospitalized patients.
