Temporal effects of daily surface decontamination on the nonporous surface in the uncolonized patient’s room using 50% and 100% efficacy compared to when there is no intervention. Surface decontamination was performed on both porous and nonporous surfaces. Due to the continuous shedding of the colonized patient, the effect of daily decontamination was short-lived; this pattern is consistently observed in other compartments.
