Recently, contamination of sensor-operated faucets (SOFs) with Pseudomonas aeruginosa was observed. To evaluate odds ratios, we conducted a case-control study in which handle-operated faucets served as controls. No statistically significant difference in P. aeruginosa counts was observed between SOFs and regular faucets in our study (odds ratio, 0.0; 95% confidence interval, 0.0 to 39.0; two-sided P exact = .99).
