The fifth edition of this classic text is the definitive,
clinically orientated guide to a critical area within healthcare
practice, full of sound, practical advice for all those involved in
the control of infection in a variety of settings. Known in
previous editions as Control of Hospital Infection, the new
Ayliffe's Control of Healthcare-Associated Infection has again been
brought up to date and thoroughly revised to emphasise the broader
range of its coverage, from the hospital setting - including the
ward, operating theatres, kitchens and laundry facilities - to
health care provision in the community. Returning readers will find
that the content has also been restructured, improving access to
related topics. Part One discusses the basic principles of
infection control, including administrative issues, surveillance
and reporting, sterilization, disinfection and decontamination,
with an emphasis on the key area of hand hygiene. Part Two covers
the specific areas of prophylaxis and treatment of infections. In
Part Three prevention in different healthcare settings is
presented, including issues particular to special wards and
departments such as paediatric and neonatal units, intensive care,
the elderly and those being treated or working within allied health
areas such as x-ray, physiotherapy and the laboratory setting.
Ayliffe's Control of Healthcare-Associated Infection remains
essential reading for all infection control practitioners, nurses,
doctors, surgeons, allied health professionals, hospital managers
and administrators, and public health personnel.
