概括
许多国际超声波用户无法获得感染预防指南和重新处理内腔 (EC) 超声波传感器的培训,从而增加了患者安全风险. 这突显了全球感染控制实践中的关键差距.
科学领域:
- 医疗成像医学成像
- 预防和控制感染的预防和控制.
- 超声波技术 超声波技术
背景情况:
- 内腔 (EC) 超声传感器需要特定的再处理协议来防止病原体的传播.
- 之前的调查表明,超声波设备的感染预防和控制 (IPC) 实践存在全球差异.
研究的目的:
- 评估全球可用的实践指南和培训,以重新处理EC超声波传感器.
- 确定目前在国际上用于EC超声传感器的再处理方法.
主要方法:
- 一项匿名在线调查通过世界医学和生物学超声波联合会 (WFUMB) 网站在全球范围内分发.
- 该调查包括六个问题,涵盖实践的国家,EC超声波的使用,传感器盖的使用,指南的可用性,培训和再加工方法.
主要成果:
- 来自105个国家的1436名受访者参与了调查.
- 只有37%的人报告获得了感染预防和控制 (IPC) 指南,而46%的人接受了重新处理EC传感器的培训.
- 高级消毒是最常见的再加工方法 (40%的受访者).
结论:
- 很大一部分国际超声波从业人员缺乏必要的IPC指导方针和EC传感器再处理培训.
- 不充分的再加工对传染病原体,包括人类乳头瘤病毒和艾滋病毒的传播构成重大风险.
- 迫切需要标准化协议和改进教育,以确保EC超声波程序的患者安全.

Ultrasonography is an imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to visualize the body's internal structures. It is a non-invasive and safe procedure that does not involve the use of ionizing radiation, making it widely used in various medical fields. Ultrasonography is used to study heart function, blood flow in the neck or extremities, certain conditions such as gallbladder disease, and fetal growth and development.

Ultrasound I: Abdominal Ultrasonography
2.1K
Introduction:
Abdominal ultrasonography, commonly known as abdominal ultrasound, is a vital, non-invasive medical imaging technique widely used in healthcare.
Procedure:
This diagnostic tool allows the clinician to visually inspect internal structures within the abdomen, including vital organs such as the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, and spleen.
The abdominal ultrasound process begins with applying a special gel to the patient's skin over the abdomen. This gel enhances the...
