Under the supervision of Dr. Ebbing Lautenbach at the University of Pennsylvania, clinical trials, done on patient room linens, concluded that the incidence of HAIs and multidrug resistant organisms (MDROs) were significantly lower with the use of copper textiles (CTs) in the fabrics.  The incidence of new MDROs in the CT group were 40% lower than the non-CT group.
