Résumé

Patient isolation is widely recommended and used in healthcare institutions to prevent transmission of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs). However, its risk: benefit ratio is debated. To assess, based on newly published studies, whether or not there are physical and psychological adverse events associated with patient isolation. Systematic literature review and meta-analysis were performed in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Studies were systematically searched from PubMed, from May 1 After screening titles of 15,921 articles and abstracts of 196, and reviewing full texts of 50 studies, 19 studies were included. Studies were divided into three groups: four qualitative studies, seven observational studies suitable for meta-analysis, and eight other observational studies. Meta-analysis shows no adverse events related to clinical care or patients' experience associated with patient isolation. More studies with correct methodology, including a control group and standardized inclusion criteria, must be conducted to confirm our results.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Patient isolation is widely recommended and used in healthcare institutions to prevent transmission of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs). However, its risk: benefit ratio is debated.
AIM OBJECTIVE

METHODS METHODS
Systematic literature review and meta-analysis were performed in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Studies were systematically searched from PubMed, from May 1
FINDINGS RESULTS
After screening titles of 15,921 articles and abstracts of 196, and reviewing full texts of 50 studies, 19 studies were included. Studies were divided into three groups: four qualitative studies, seven observational studies suitable for meta-analysis, and eight other observational studies.
