Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

The goal of this study is to determine if wearing slippers will reduce transfer of bacteriophage MS2 from hospital room floors to surfaces in the room and hands of patients. Subjects are randomized to wear slippers versus standard care and cultures are collected at 24 and 48 hours to assess transfer of bacteriophage MS2 from the floor to high-touch surfaces, personal items, bedding, socks or feet, and hands of patients.
