概括
实施疾病预防控制中心.
科学领域:
- 与医疗保健相关的感染
- 传染病流行病学 传染病流行病学
- 改善医疗保健的质量.
背景情况:
- 尽管发生率有所减少,但医院发病的Clostridioides difficile感染 (HO-CDI) 仍然是与医疗保健相关的重要感染.
- 为了有效控制HO-CDI,需要采用多方面的方法,因为单一干预的成功程度有限.
- 疾病控制和预防中心 (CDC) 制定了一个框架,以指导急性护理设施的HO-CDI预防策略.
研究的目的:
- 评估CDC框架在减少区域医院网络内的HO-CDI发病率方面的有效性.
- 将实施框架的医院的HO-CDI趋势与对照医院的HO-CDI趋势进行比较.
- 评估框架实施对干预期前后HO-CDI率的影响.
主要方法:
- 从2019年7月到2022年3月,在20家干预医院和26家控制医院进行了一项质量改善研究.
- 干预医院每月接受电话会议,以支持在5个重点领域实施"框架"39项建议.
- 主要结局包括HO-CDI发病率的趋势和率,将干预地点与控制点和干预前后的时间进行比较.
主要成果:
- 虽然干预地点的HO-CDI发病率与对照组相比下降得更快 (IRR,0.79;P=.01),但这种下降并没有与研究参与暂时相关.
- 在这项研究之前,HO-CDI发病率在干预医院已经在下降,在干预期间下降的速度没有变化.
- 更多地遵守框架实施与HO-CDI发病率的急剧下降有关 (IRR,0.95;P=.03).
结论:
- 在这项质量改善研究中,CDC框架的实施与HO-CDI发病率的时间下降没有直接关联.
- 调查结果表明,虽然遵守"框架"可能是有益的,但仅仅实施它并没有在研究期间导致HO-CDI率显著下降.
- 进一步的研究是有必要的,以了解多式联络预防策略的有效性,以控制HO-CDI在医疗机构.

Healthcare Associated Infections II: Preventive Measures
2.6K
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...

Transmission-based Precautions I: Contact, Enteric, and Droplets
3.6K
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
1.9K
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

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...

Infection
7.9K
When a pathogen enters the body and reproduces, it can cause an infection, damage body cells, and cause illness symptoms that eventually lead to disease. Therefore, its prevention requires breaking the chain of infection.
The chain begins with pathogens: bacteria, viruses, fungi, prions, or parasites such as protozoa helminths. These can be present on the skin as transient or resident flora, or they can be acquired from the environment. Identifying and treating the type of infection and...

Cleaning, Sterilization, and Disinfection
6.7K
Cleaning, disinfection, and sterilization are the methods that help to break the infection chain and prevent disease.
Cleaning
The cleaning process usually involves using water with detergents or enzymatic cleaner and removing foreign material from objects and surfaces, including organic material such as body fluids or inorganic material like soil. Cleaning is performed before high-level disinfection and sterilization because foreign materials on the cover of the devices interfere with process...
