Standard Precaution01:26

Standard Precaution

2.1K
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 I: Contact, Enteric, and Droplets

3.9K
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...

Transmission-based Precautions II: Airborne and Protective Environment

1.4K
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...

Methods of Documentation II: POMR

1.0K
The Problem-Oriented Medical Record (POMR) revolutionized medical record-keeping by introducing a systematic approach focusing on the patient's problems rather than merely listing symptoms. Dr. Lawrence Weed's introduction of this method in the 1960s marked a significant advancement in medical documentation. The POMR framework consists of four key components: the database, problem list, plan of care, and progress notes.

Handwashing II: Pre-procedure and Initial Procedure Steps01:19

Handwashing II: Pre-procedure and Initial Procedure Steps

1.0K
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...

PPE Use in Healthcare Settings II: Doffing01:10

PPE Use in Healthcare Settings II: Doffing

1.0K
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.

Area of Science:

  • Infectious Diseases
  • Public Health
  • Dental Medicine

Background:

  • Infection control in dentistry is vital, especially with emerging diseases like COVID-19.
  • The global monkeypox outbreak (since May 2022) poses new challenges for dental settings.
  • Monkeypox transmits through close contact, contaminated surfaces, and potentially aerosols.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To discuss the relevance of monkeypox to dental professionals.
  • To outline the disease's presentation and impact on dental infection control.
  • To emphasize the need for research to support future pandemic preparedness in dentistry.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review on monkeypox transmission and clinical presentation.
  • Analysis of potential risks in dental settings.
  • Discussion of implications for infection prevention and control (IPC) practices.

Main Results:

  • Monkeypox, characterized by a rash including oral lesions, is now globally transmitted human-to-human.
  • Dental professionals face risks due to potential transmission routes relevant to dental procedures.
  • Current IPC strategies may require updates to address monkeypox effectively.

Conclusions:

  • The monkeypox outbreak underscores the critical need for robust research in dental infection control.
  • Evidence-based practices are essential for dental preparedness against emerging infectious threats.
  • Sustained research programs will strengthen planning for future outbreaks and pandemics in dentistry.
