outbreaks Such outbreaks increase economic and infection control burdens We studied the infection control in uence of MERS CoV using a hospital based analysis Methods Our hospital had 17 positive and 82 negative cases of MERS CoV between April 1 2013 and June 3 2013 The study evaluated the impact of these cases on the use of gloves surgical masks N95 respirators alcohol based hand sanitizer and soap as well as hand hygiene compliance rates Results During the study the use of personal protective equipment during MERS CoV compared with the period before MERS CoV increased dramatically from 2 947 4 to 10 283 9 per 1 000 patient days P 0000001 for surgical masks and from 22 to 232 per 1 000 patient days P 0000001 for N95 masks The use of alcohol based hand sanitizer and soap showed a signi cant increase in utilized amount P 0000001 Hand hygiene compliance rates increased from 73 just before the occurrence of the rst MERS case to 88 during MERS cases P 0001 The monthly added cost was 16

ajicjournal org at ScienceDirect Infection Control organization has state of the art infection control practices and procedures The hospital was one of the rst in the world to deal with MERS CoV cases when 99 patients who met the case de nition of suspected MERS CoV were admitted Of those cases 17 tested positive and 82 tested negative for MERS CoV between April 1 2013 and June 3 2013 11 13 Of the positive cases as described previously 30 had health care associated infections because the hospital received patients in transfer from other facilities 2 In this study we aimed to re evaluate the impact of these cases on infection control practices including the use of gloves surgical masks N95 respirators alcohol based hand sanitizer and soap expressed as mL per 1 000 patient days Data on the monthly use of gloves pairs surgical masks and N95 respirators were obtained from the central supply ser vice assessed based on retrospective analysis of overall supply ordering by the hospital and expressed per 1 000 patient days We also evaluated any change in monthly hand hygiene compli ance rates The data span from May 2012 to July 2013 and include the pre MERS period May 2012 to March 2013 the MERS period April to May 2013 and the post MERS period June to July 2013 Data were extracted from the infection con in Figure 2 there was a signi cant increase in the used amount P 0001 Fig 3 The monthly added cost was 16 400 for the included infection control items such as hand sanitizers soap surgi cal masks and N95 respirators DISCUSSION In the most recent updates by the World Health Organization a total of 2 040 31 cases were health care facility associated infections 14 In addition initial MERS CoV symptoms tend to be nonspeci c and might not be noticed Thus adherence to stan dard precautions is a critical factor in the prevention of MERS CoV transmission 14 This adherence as well as the initial uncer tainty about transmission routes early in the course of the dis ease had resulted in widespread fear of MERS CoV It is known that application of standard infection control results in the termi nation of MERS CoV outbreaks 2 4 15 16 Here we showed a signi cant increase in the use of PPE mainly surgical masks respirators alcohol based hand sanitizer and soap There was a signi cant increase in the utilization of surgical masks and respi rators during the study period There are mixed recommendations ARTICLE IN PRESS 2 J A Al Taw q et al American Journal of Infection Control 00 2018 1 4 P 0000001 Handhygiene complianceratesareshowninFigure 2 The hand hygiene compliance rate increased from 73 just before the occurrence of the rst MERS case to 88 during MERS cases trol database and monthly patient days were obtained from the health information unit This study was approved by the institu tional review board of the Johns Hopkins Aramco Healthcare RESULTS During the observation period the utilization of personal protec tive equipment PPE with cases of MERS CoV compared with the period before MERS CoV cases increased dramatically from 2 947 4 to 10 283 9 per 1 000 patient days P 0000001 for surgical masks and from 22 to 232 per 1 000 patient days P 0000001 for N95 masks Fig 1 It is interesting to note that the increase in utilization of N95 masks preceded the increase in surgical mask utilization by about 1 month The utilization of alcohol based hand sanitizer and soap is shown Fig 1 A run chart showing the utilization of surgical masks solid line and respirators dashed March 2013 and during Middle East respiratory syndrome cases April to July 2013 for the care of patients with MERS CoV with regard to placing patients in airborne isolation and thus the use of N95 respirators droplet precautions and surgical masks 7 15 17 18 The use of surgi cal masks was noted to increase signi cantly during the 2009 H1N1 in uenza pandemic with a reported 52 increase in use 19 This increase in the use of PPE is paralleled by an increase in cost It is recommended that hospitals maintain an adequate sup ply of PPE for use during infectious disease outbreaks In 1 study it was calculated that 4 sets of PPE N95 respirators double gloves gowns and goggles per day are needed for each health care worker in the high risk group and 2 sets of PPE are required for medium and low risk groups 20 Another implication for the increased use of PPE is the generation of medical waste which we did not address in this study In 1 simulation exercise an additional 570 L of waste was generated per day 21 We were not able to show a signi cant increase in hand hygiene practices despite the signi cant increase in utilization of alcohol based hand sanitizers This observation may be related to the fact that baseline hand hygiene was about 88 in the preceding months However the hand hygiene compliance line in the period before Middle East respiratory syndrome cases May 2012 to rate dropped to 73 just before the occurrence of the rst MERS caseandthenpickedupto88 P 0001 It has been shown that both observation and a multifaceted approach increase hand hygiene compliance 22 23 and that utilization of secret limitations of the study

the data are from 2013 which may be considered a limitation they are still valid because this is the only study docu menting the burden of this new virus on health infrastructure even though 5 years have elapsed since its emergence Other Fig 3 A run chart showing hand hygiene compliance rates in the period before Middle East tory syndrome cases April to July 2013 UCL Upper Control Limits LCL
