PPE Use in Healthcare Settings I: Donning01:22

PPE Use in Healthcare Settings I: Donning

1.3K
Donning PPE must be completed before contact with the patient. This process protects from infectious agents. The sequence and action included in each donning are critical, and the steps must be systematic to avoid exposure to pathogens. The institutional policy also needs to be followed while donning PPE. The pre-donning preparations are gathering equipment, inspecting the PPE equipment for tears, holes, or damage, removing jewelry, removing any garments below the elbows, and tying the hair...

PPE Use in Healthcare Settings II: Doffing

1.2K
The sequence of removing or doffing PPE starts with the gloves, as they are the most contaminated. Next is removal of the face shield or goggles, as they would interfere with removing other PPE. Then remove the gown, followed by the mask or respirator. Perform hand hygiene between steps if hands become contaminated and immediately after removing all PPE. Generally, the outside front and sleeves of the isolation gown, the goggles or the mask, the respirator, and the face shield are contaminated.

Personal Protective Equipment01:20

Personal Protective Equipment

1.9K
Personal protective equipment (PPE) is unique clothing or equipment worn by an employee to minimize or prevent exposure to infectious agents. PPE creates a barrier between the employee and the infectious materials. PPE must be readily available in the patient care area. PPE includes gloves, gowns and aprons, masks and respirators, goggles, face shields, shoes, and headcovers:

Standard Precaution01:26

Standard Precaution

2.3K
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...

Transmission-based Precautions II: Airborne and Protective Environment

1.6K
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...

Transmission-based Precautions I: Contact, Enteric, and Droplets

4.2K
Transmission-based precautions are for patients known to be infected or suspected to be infected or colonized with organisms that pose a significant risk to others. Some transmission-based precautions include contact, enteric, and droplet.
Contact Precautions:
Contact precautions are the measures taken to prevent the transmission of infectious agents, especially epidemiologically important microorganisms such as MRSA or influenza, primarily transmitted through direct or indirect contact with an...

Area of Science:

  • Health Communication
  • Behavioral Science
  • Sociology of Health

Background:

  • The Health Belief Model (HBM) is a key framework for understanding health behaviors, focusing on perceived risks.
  • Limitations exist in the current HBM for predicting health actions.
  • Cultural Theory (CT) offers insights into cultural influences on health risk management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine the relationship between intrinsic cultural value-based beliefs and HBM beliefs.
  • To understand behavioral intentions related to COVID-19 in the U.S. general public.
  • To integrate CT and HBM for enhanced health behavior prediction.

Main Methods:

  • Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression analysis was employed.
  • Graphical analysis was used to visualize relationships.
  • Partisanship and demographic factors were statistically controlled.

Main Results:

  • Intrinsic cultural values were found to be associated with HBM beliefs.
  • These associations help explain behavioral intentions regarding COVID-19.
  • The integration of CT provides a more nuanced understanding of health behaviors.

Conclusions:

  • Cultural value-based beliefs significantly impact health beliefs and behavioral intentions.
  • Integrating Cultural Theory with the Health Belief Model enhances prediction of health behaviors.
  • This approach offers a more comprehensive framework for health communication strategies.
