Intensive care unit (ICU)-acquired infections can be serious complications of medical care of critically ill patients. Despite multiple tested and implemented preventive measures for such infections, their incidence is persistently high, whereas coherence of infection prevention practices in ICUs across the globe remains low. The heterogeneity in practice reflects the—perceived—low level of evidence of effectiveness provided by clinical research.
