A simple data-processing system for the monitoring of cross-infection in a district general hospital
Abstract:
A year's trail has demonstrated the effectiveness of a simple data processing system in the early identification of cross-infection problems at their source. The system has particular advantanges for small and scattered surgical units where cross-infection monitoring is particularly difficult because patients are transferred before their treatment is complete. A simple extension of the system could audit the efficiency of preventive antiseptic measures, particularly aseptic techniques, and provide antibiotic profiles.
