Current evidence-based guidelines were reviewed for operating room protocol in conjunction with provisions from the American's with Disabilities Act, to provide a safe and functional environment for operating room staff, the patient, and the resident. Guidelines for equipment use, personal protective equipment, and sterile procedure were combined with the provision that a wheelchair is an extension of its user to draft a protocol for wheelchair use in the operating room. Evidence-based recommendations were successfully coordinated with American's with Disabilities Act provisions to provide a safe operating protocol for the wheelchair-bound surgeon.Background Bacteremia is the second cause of death in hemodialysis patients and colonization may be a risk factor. We analyzed the association between Staphylococcus aureus or multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria colonization and bacteremia in hemodialysis patients. Methods A prospective cohort study was conducted. Colonization status was determined at baseline, 2, and 6 months later. The time-to-first-bacteremia was analyzed using the baseline status and time-dependent nature of colonization. The recurrence of bacteremia given colonization status was evaluated using a Poisson regression model. The genetic relatedness between isolates that colonized and caused bacteremia were established by molecular typing methods. Results Seventy-one patients developed bacteremia over the course of follow-up, with the majority of cases being caused by S aureus (n = 28; 39.4%) and only three caused by multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. S aureus colonization was associated with an increased risk of bacteremia in time-dependent analysis (HR4.64; 95%CI 1.72-12.53) and with recurrence of infection in Poisson model (IRR5
