同室安置（Cohorting）是指將患有相同病原體感染的病人安置在同一病房，以節省隔離資源。核心前提是病原體必須完全相同，若病原體不同（即便傳播途徑相同），也不能同室安置，以防發生共感染或病原體交換。此舉能有效降低醫療機構內感染（Healthcare-associated infections, HAIs）的發生率。
Cohorting refers to placing clients with the same pathogenic infection in the same room to conserve isolation resources. The essential prerequisite is that the pathogen must be identical; if the pathogens differ (even if the route of transmission is the same), the clients should not be cohorted, to prevent co-infection or pathogen exchange. This practice effectively reduces the incidence of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs).
美國醫院對於 Cohorting 的規範極其嚴格，通常需經由感染管制師（Infection Control Practitioner, ICP）評估後才可執行，特別是在抗藥性菌株的管控上，美國法規要求比台灣更為嚴格的監測。
