2. FIG. 1
Decision-analytical model. Branches extending from the square-shaped decision node represent each of the surveillance strategies being compared; circle-shaped nodes are called chance nodes; event-specific probabilities listed in Table 1 determine which branch is followed from a chance node; triangle-shaped nodes are called terminal nodes and indicate the end of a pathway. AS + D, active surveillance with decolonization. AS, active surveillance; NS, no surveillance; HAI, healthcare-associated infection; MRSA, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.
