Non-pharmacological interventions designed to support carriers of multi-drug-resistant organisms (MDROs): a systematic literature review
The main outcome of this review is the striking lack of research on how to address the non-medical needs of MDRO carriers. Although the limited available evidence suggests that education and emotional support interventions may be beneficial, methodological shortcomings limit the generalizability of these findings. This review highlights the urgent need for robust, scalable, patient-centred interventions to improve the experiences of MDRO carriers.
