In recent years, we have begun to recognise the rising threat of
Multidrug Resistant Organisms (MDORs), and the profound impact that
healthcare associated infections (HCAIs), such as MRSA, can have on
both patient safety and quality of care. HCAIs prolong patients'
hospital stays, and increase morbidity as well as mortality rates,
yet diagnosing and treating these infections is a costly process
that can place intense pressure on already limited healthcare
resources. The updated and significantly expanded new edition of
Manual of Infection Prevention and Control is a practical handbook
that provides a comprehensive overview of HCAI control and
prevention in all healthcare facilities. Clear diagrams and
quick-access tables give step-by-step instructions to guide the
reader through real-life prevention strategies such as hand wash,
disinfection, and sterilisation. A truly current and global source,
this book also includes information regarding infection outbreak
management, and detailed sections on specific pathogens such as
swine flu, C Difficile, ESBL, MRSA, E.coli 0157, XDR-TB, and Ebola.
Manual of Infection Prevention and Control is a fully illustrated,
evidence based guide for doctors, nurses, and public health
physicians working to prevent the spreading of infectious diseases
- most particularly HCAIs. It is also a valuable reference for
environmental health officers, health educators, practice managers
in GP surgeries, and health service managers.
