Healthcare Associated Infections II: Preventive Measures01:22

Healthcare Associated Infections II: Preventive Measures

3.4K
Essential infection prevention measures are based on the knowledge of the infection chain, the modes of transmission in healthcare settings, and the use of the best practices in all healthcare settings. Compulsory public reporting of healthcare-associated infection rates is needed to allow individuals and the community to make informed choices regarding selecting a healthcare facility.
The best practices for preventing healthcare-associated infections include hand hygiene, patient risk...

Standard Precaution

2.5K
Standard precautions are the minimum infection control safeguards used while caring for all patients, irrespective of their disease condition. They help prevent the spread of common infectious microorganisms to healthcare workers, patients, and visitors in all healthcare settings.
Hand hygiene is the most crucial means to prevent the transmission of disease. Employers are legally required to provide their workers with personal protective equipment (PPE) to minimize exposure or contact with...

SBAR I: Understanding the Concept

5.5K
Effective communication among healthcare professionals during hand-off reporting is essential to delivering safe and continuous patient care. Common professional interactions include reports to healthcare team members, hand-off, and transfer reports. Nurses routinely report information to other healthcare team members and also urgently contact healthcare providers to report changes in patient status.
Standardized methods of communication have been developed to ensure that information is...

Transmission-based Precautions II: Airborne and Protective Environment

1.7K
Transmission-based precautions are for patients infected or suspected to be infected (or colonized) with organisms posing a significant risk to others. The transmission precautions include airborne and protective environment precautions.
Airborne precautions:
Use airborne precautions when treating patients known or suspected to have diseases that spread through the air—for example, tuberculosis or measles. These organisms are present in smaller droplets expelled by an infected person and...

Decreased Body Temperature01:29

Decreased Body Temperature

838
A decreased body temperature can occur in patients with hypothermia and frostbite. Heat loss with extended cold exposure overpowers the body's ability to create heat, resulting in hypothermia. Core temperature readings help classify hypothermia. Mild hypothermia is temperatures between 32 °C (89.6 °F) and 35°C (95 °F) and is caused by impaired thermoregulation. Moderate hypothermia is temperatures between 28 C (82.4 °F) and 32 °C (89.6 °F) caused by...

Area of Science:

  • Pediatrics
  • Public Health
  • Neonatal Care

Background:

  • Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) remains a concern, with risk factors including infant sleep position and crib environment.
  • Data on the implementation of safe sleep recommendations in inpatient settings is limited.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the adherence to safe infant sleep recommendations in a hospital setting.
  • To identify prevalent unsafe sleep practices among infants.

Main Methods:

  • An observational, cross-sectional study was conducted at King Abdulaziz University Hospital.
  • A checklist based on American Association of Pediatrics (AAP) guidelines was used to evaluate infant sleep environments.
  • Data was collected by trained independent observers for infants under one year.

Main Results:

  • 102 infants were studied, with a mean age of 18.85 weeks.
  • Most infants slept on their back (81%) in cribs (71.4%).
  • However, unsafe items were common: blankets (79.4%), loose sheets (>50%), and pillows (42.2%) were frequently present.

Conclusions:

  • The study underscores the need to enhance awareness of safe sleep practices in healthcare settings.
  • Role-modeling safe sleep by healthcare providers can educate caregivers.
  • Further research is needed to address barriers to implementing safe sleep recommendations for both institutions and families.
