From July 2007 ten Ultraviolet air sterilisation units were place in the orthopaedic trauma ward. During the study period the hospital had an active programme against CDI. The programme for the ward was not distinct from the rest of the hospital apart from the installation of the air sterilisation units.

It is seen that the hospital reduced the average number of CDI cases per six months from 146 (Jan 06 to Jun 07) to 98 (Jul 07 to Sep 08), a reduction of 33% On the same basis the trauma ward achieved a 80% reduction from 12 cases per six months to 2.4 cases.
