Factors influencing infection risk include microbial agents, patient susceptibility, and environmental factors. The document outlines standard and transmission-based precautions to prevent infection spread. It emphasizes hand hygiene, personal protective equipment, and cleaning and disinfection as core infection control measures.
Ignaz Semmelweis discovered that handwashing with antiseptic solutions could prevent the spread of disease between patients. He observed that women giving birth in clinics where doctors examined corpses first without washing hands had a higher rate of puerperal fever than clinics where this did not occur. Proper hand hygiene, including washing with soap and water or using alcohol-based hand rub, is important in medical settings to remove pathogens and prevent transmission of infection between patients and staff. The World Health Organization recommends cleaning hands at five key moments: before touching a patient, before clean procedures, after risk of body fluid exposure, after touching a patient, and after contact with patient surroundings.
Hospital acquired infections, also known as nosocomial infections, can be contracted by patients or staff while receiving care in a hospital setting. They are usually caused by failure to follow aseptic techniques during procedures like surgery, IV insertion, or wound care. Patients, staff, and the hospital environment can all be sources of infection. Common routes of transmission include direct contact, droplets, contaminated equipment, and aerosols. Prevention strategies include isolating infectious patients, practicing good hand hygiene, wearing proper PPE, and thoroughly cleaning and disinfecting or sterilizing equipment between uses.
