Abstract
Hospitalisation in double-occupancy rooms and the risk of hospital-acquired influenza (HAI) were assessed prospectively. The incidence was 2.0 for 100 patient-days in double versus 0.7 in single-occupancy rooms (p=0.028). The adjusted HR of HAI was 2.67 (95%CI: 1.05-6.76) in patients hospitalised in double compared to single-occupancy rooms.
