Safety precautions in the clinic and laboratory.pptx

Mustafa Al-Ali

Safety precautions in the clinic and laboratory. Mustafa al-ali, 48 Safety precautions in the clinic and laboratory Safety precautions in the dental clinic and laboratory are crucial to protect both patients and dental healthcare professionals. Here are some key safety measures to consider: Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Hand Hygiene Sterilization and Disinfection Waste Management Radiation Safety Emergency Preparedness Chemical Safety Ergonomics Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Personal protective equipment (PPE) should be selected based on risk assessment and tasks to be performed. These items are designed to provide a protective barrier during dental procedures and through the sterilization process. PPE must also be considered for patients as they enter the facility and provided to administrative staff who may be screening them upon arrival. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Gown Dental Hygiene Care Professionals (DHCP) should wear protective clothing (eg, gowns, jackets) to prevent contamination of scrubs and to protect the skin from exposure to blood and bodily fluids. Sleeves should be long enough to protect the forearms. Protective clothing should be changed after use or when it becomes visibly soiled by blood or other bodily fluids. DHCP should remove protective clothing before leaving the work area. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Eyewear/Face Shields Protective Eyewear DHCP should wear protective eyewear with solid side shields or a face shield during procedures likely to generate splashes or sprays of blood or bodily fluids or the spatter of debris. Reusable protective eyewear should be cleaned with soap and water, and when visibly soiled, disinfected between patients. Personal eyeglasses are not considered PPE. Protective eyewear should be provided to patients. Face Shields Face shields provide full-face coverage. Must be worn with a face mask. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Gloves DHCP should wear gloves to prevent contamination of their hands when touching mucous membranes, blood, saliva, or other potentially infectious materials and to reduce the likelihood that microorganisms on their hands will be transmitted to patients during patient care. Gloves should be used for one patient only and discarded appropriately after use. Hand hygiene should be performed prior to donning gloves and immediately after glove removal. Hand Hygiene Hand hygiene is extremely important to prevent the spread of the SARS CoV-2 virus. It also interrupts the transmission of other viruses and bacteria, thus reducing the overall burden of disease, Dental healthcare facilities should ensure that hand hygiene supplies are readily available in every patient care location. Pre-washing considerations Remove jewelry, ring, watches, or bracelets Remove artificial nails if present. Cover skin cuts, abrasions, breaks or cracks with waterproof adhesive dressings. Use running water; avoid dipping or washing hands in a basin of standing water

Discuss one cause of foodborne illness..Not E coli ... State why it is a public health problem? The discuss why this problem occurs, Also discuss current control measures recommended and used to prevent and control the foodborne illness that is the focus of your discussion. Finally, you should propose a new control strategy or measure(s) that, if implemented, you believe would reduce or eliminate the problem that you have characterized earlier Your proposal for improved prevention and control practice should utilize terms and concepts,You should explain how your proposal relates to the problem that you identified earlier in the paper, why you believe that it will work, and how your proposed measure(s) fill gaps in the current public health response. Solution - Listeriosis is a serious infection caused by the germ Listeria monocytogenes. People usually become ill with listeriosis after eating contaminated food. The disease primarily affects pregnant women, newborns, older adults, and people with weakened immune systems. It\'s rare for people in other groups to get sick with Listeria infection. Listeriosis is usually a mild illness for pregnant women, but it causes severe disease in the fetus or newborn baby. Adults 65 years and older and people with weakened immune systems most commonly develop severe infections of the bloodstream (causing sepsis) or brain (causing meningitis or encephalitis). Listeria infections can sometimes affect other parts of the body, including bones, joints, and sites in the chest and abdomen. - it is a public health problem because Recognized as an important public health problem in the United States, Listeria monocytogenes is a ubiquitous, intracellular pathogen known to cause food-contaminating outbreaks. These microorganisms have the ability to multiply within host cells and spread from cell to cell - control measures - Avoiding Outbreaks A clean, dry environment is of utmost importance in controlling Listeria. Common processing facility contamination sites include floors, walls, ceilings, food contact surfaces, cleaning aids, drains/wash areas, and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. Potential problem areas should be identified at each processing facility Without meticulous and proper cleaning, plant equipment, including any equipment used for refrigeration and HVAC, can become breeding grounds for microorganisms. Intermittent defrost systems, which are subject to frequent washdowns, encourage microbial growth. Because they often contain moisture from standing water or condensation, special attention should be paid to these systems to prevent their contamination. Among the many general guidelines for keeping a food processing facility clean, visual inspection and routine testing are important. While regular cleaning can help prevent outbreaks, continuous monitoring is needed to assess further control measures. Determine sample points and frequency for routine environmental testing, food cont.
