Healthcare-Associated Infections
Healthcare-Associated Infections
Healthcare-associated infections are not present during the addition of patients in the hospitals. These infections include bloodstream, urinary tract, surgical site infections, ventilators linked pneumonia, and clostridium difficile infections. This infection is favorable in different conditions including coughing, lack of enough air when breathing abdominal pains, palpitations, and dysuria. In this research, I will outline the evaluation and ways to handle hospital-acquired infection mainly focusing on hospital staff (Le et al., 2019). National Healthcare Safety Network is working to cub this infectious pathogen to improve staff safety and wellbeing during working hours. This includes monitoring closely the safety guidelines as per the health organization.
Hospital-acquired infections can be controlled in different ways. The main focus is hospital staff and the way they carry themselves during patient attendance. handwashing can be an effective way to help prevent hospital-acquired infection. This should be practiced before and after patient attendance. Wearing of mask and hand gloves also helps prevent direct contact from patients with easily transmitted infections. “This initiative focuses on education and emphasizes solutions for staff education. In addition, the paper summarizes the association between hand cleanliness and hospital-acquired illness. As a result, the challenges in practice support the PICOT question that led the evaluation of research.”.
