Hospital Stay Length as an Effect Modifier of Other Risk Factors for Nosocomial Infection
This paper addresses the problem of hospital stay length as a risk factor for nosocomial infection and as a modifier of the effect of other risk factors for hospital infection. Patients were selected form two cross-sectional studies done in two different seasons of 1986. Risk of infection rose fairl...
