Hand hygiene01:23

Hand hygiene

Asepsis is the practice of preventing or breaking the chain of infection. The nurse employs aseptic techniques to prevent the spread of microorganisms and reduce the risk of diseases. Hand hygiene is the cornerstone of aseptic techniques and is classified into medical and surgical asepsis. Medical asepsis includes hand hygiene and the use of gloves. Surgical asepsis, or the sterile technique, refers to practices that render and keep objects and areas free of microorganisms.

Acne Infection01:27

Acne Infection

Acne is a multifactorial skin condition primarily affecting adolescents and young adults, with a global prevalence estimated to exceed 75% in this demographic. The condition is characterized by the formation of comedones (blackheads and whiteheads), papules, pustules, nodules, and, in severe cases, cysts, particularly in areas rich in sebaceous glands such as the face, neck, chest, and back. The pathogenesis involves increased sebum production, follicular hyperkeratinization, colonization by...

Handwashing II: Pre-procedure and Initial Procedure Steps

The pre-procedure steps of handwashing include removing jewelry and rolling up sleeves. However, many organizations allow staff to wear wedding rings.
The hand washing procedure itself includes the following steps. First, cover cuts, if any, on hands with a waterproof dressing. Cuts and abrasions can become contaminated with bacteria hindering the ability to clean the area thoroughly. In addition, repeated hand washing can worsen an injury.  The nails must be short and clean, without nail paint...

Techniques of therapeutic communication I: Active Listening, Sharing Observations, Validation, and Using Touch

The history of therapeutic communication can be traced back to Florence Nightingale, who emphasized the importance of developing trusting relationships with patients. She taught that the presence of nurses with patients results in therapeutic healing.
Therapeutic communication is not the same as social interaction. Social interaction has no goal or purpose and consists of casual information sharing, whereas therapeutic communication has a plan or purpose for the conversation. Therapeutic...
Skin Diseases and Disorders01:23

Skin Diseases and Disorders

Skin is the first line of defense and encounters a variety of microbes. Some pathogenic strains are often the cause of a broad range of infections of the skin and other body systems. These conditions can affect people of all ages and may have different causes, including genetic factors, infections, autoimmune reactions, environmental factors, and lifestyle choices.
Gram-positive Staphylococcus spp. and Streptococcus spp. are responsible for many of the most common skin infections. However, many...

Area of Science:

  • Occupational Dermatology
  • Public Health
  • Medical Education

Background:

  • Occupational contact dermatitis poses significant risks to worker employability and incurs substantial public health costs.
  • Educational interventions and teaching aids have been developed globally over the past two decades to address this issue.
  • Different levels of prevention (primary, secondary, tertiary) have been defined in occupational dermatology.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review educational interventions for preventing occupational contact dermatitis.
  • To evaluate the effectiveness of these preventive measures.
  • To emphasize the prevention of allergic contact dermatitis.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of educational interventions and evaluation studies.
  • Focus on primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention strategies.
  • Analysis of interventions targeting specific occupational groups.

Main Results:

  • Various educational interventions exist for different prevention levels.
  • Studies evaluating these measures have been conducted.
  • Specific focus on high-risk professions like healthcare workers, hairdressers, metalworkers, and bakers' apprentices.

Conclusions:

  • Educational interventions are crucial for preventing occupational contact dermatitis.
  • A comprehensive approach including primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention is recommended.
  • Targeted strategies are effective for specific occupational groups, particularly for allergic contact dermatitis.
