Statistically significant differences were observed for UTI,
skin, gastrointestinal, and lower respiratory infections (P < .05).
Prevalence of UTI was 73% lower in the current study, whereas
prevalences of skin, gastrointestinal, and lower respiratory infections
were 188%, 163%, 359% greater, respectively. Harris et al9
conducted a 2-year study of infection prevalence rates in a pediatric
rehabilitation hospital.
