Limits of patient isolation measures to control extended-spectrum beta-lactamase–producing Enterobacteriaceae: model-based analysis of clinical data in a pediatric ward

Table 3 Comparing interventions

Intervention	Predicted incidence (per 1 000 pt-d)	Observed incidence (per 1 000 pt-d)
No isolation	14.3 (2.4–30)	—
Single-room isolation	7.2 (2.5–13.9)	7.0
Isolation ward without preemptive isolation	5.9 (2–10.5)	—
Isolation ward with preemptive isolation	4.2 (0.9–7.4)	4.3

Predicted intervals were based on 1000 model simulations. Dashes indicate hypothetical interventions that were only simulated, and, therefore, not observed. pt-d: patient-days.
