Case Study 6: Outbreak in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit

Session Overview

Instructions
For the purposes of this exercise, you will be asked to work in groups to participate in a
healthcare associated infection investigation. Information regarding the scenario will be
provided to you in parts, each of which will be followed by related discussion questions.
Choose one group member to read each segment of information aloud to the rest of the
group. After receiving the information, work as a team to formulate answers to each
discussion question.

Intended Audience
All public health, medical, veterinary, pharmacy, emergency management, hospital and
other professionals interested in public health preparedness and field epidemiology.

Time Required (estimated)
90 minutes

Learning Objectives

 Describe infection control practices in a healthcare setting
 Calculate disease prevalence, case-fatality rate, and odds ratio
 Create a histogram of cases over time
 Choose an appropriate epidemiological study design, given information about an

outbreak
 Interpret epidemiologic study results

Case Study 6: Outbreak in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit

Pre-Test

1. Which of the following describe contact precautions to prevent the spread of
infection in a hospital setting?

a. Limiting patient movement
b. Providing gown and gloves for patient
c. Using dedicated equipment
d. Cleaning and disinfecting patient room daily
e. All of the above are contact precautions
f. A, B, and D only

2. Prevalence is:
a. number of deaths in infected persons

total number of infected persons
b. number or cases (new and existing)

population at risk of infection
c. number or cases (new and existing)

total number of infected persons
d. none of the above

3. True or False: In a case control-study, the controls should represent the

population that gave rise to the case patients.

Case Study 6: Outbreak in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit

Student Guide

Situation

Healthcare associated infections (HAIs), previously referred to as nosocomial infections,
are acquired by patients during their treatment in a healthcare setting. HAIs are of
serious concern in the healthcare field. Hospitals are an ideal setting for opportunistic
pathogens because they house both highly infectious and highly susceptible patients.
Simple infection control practices such as hand washing and thorough cleaning and
disinfecting of items have greatly reduced the incidence of HAIs, yet such infections still
occur. In the U.S.
