Transmission-based Precautions I: Contact, Enteric, and Droplets01:17

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...

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...

Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching II: Planning and Implementation

1.3K
Planning for learning involves the development of a teaching plan. Teaching plans are similar to nursing care plans—both follow the steps of the nursing process. Planning in the teaching process involves setting goals and outcomes. Here, goals identify what a patient needs to achieve to understand a healthcare topic better, whereas the outcomes are the action to be performed by the patient to achieve the goal within a timeframe. For example, if the goal is to educate the patient about...

Surveys02:16

Surveys

14.9K
Often, psychologists develop surveys as a means of gathering data. Surveys are lists of questions to be answered by research participants, and can be delivered as paper-and-pencil questionnaires, administered electronically, or conducted verbally. Generally, the survey itself can be completed in a short time, and the ease of administering a survey makes it easy to collect data from a large number of people.

Current Trends in Nursing II01:30

Current Trends in Nursing II

1.3K
Trends in nursing are multifactorial and associated with changes in society, within the nursing profession, and in other professions. Notably, telehealth and remote nursing contribute to successful healthcare delivery for numerous patients and help reduce stress for nurses due to nursing shortages. Nurses can reach patients, monitor their conditions, and interact with them using computers, audio, visual accessories, and telephones—for example, remote patient monitoring systems. Likewise,...

Transmission-based Precautions II: Airborne and Protective Environment

1.3K
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...

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Higher Education Administration
  • Infectious Disease Control

Background:

  • Universities faced significant challenges in maintaining educational quality during the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • Navigating the uncertainties of SARS-CoV-2 transmission required adaptive strategies in academic settings.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe Colorado State University's (CSU) strategies for mitigating SARS-CoV-2 transmission among its community.
  • To detail the procedures implemented in CSU's microbiology teaching laboratories during the pandemic.

Main Methods:

  • Data collection involved analyzing university-wide email communications, town hall meeting records, and interviews with key personnel.
  • Information focused on public health initiatives and responses spearheaded by CSU leaders, researchers, and staff.

Main Results:

  • No known SARS-CoV-2 transmission cases occurred in classrooms at CSU.
  • Successful mitigation involved social norming, rapid screening, an online reporting system, contact tracing, classroom capacity reduction, enhanced ventilation, and flexible instructional delivery.

Conclusions:

  • Intense community collaboration, open communication, and instructor flexibility were crucial for maintaining face-to-face instruction, especially for hands-on courses.
  • The CSU experience provides valuable insights and a historical account for institutions managing the COVID-19 pandemic.
