Abstract:
The hospital acquired infections are becoming common in our hospitals lately. These infections are difficult to treat and maybe life threatening. Hospital acquired infection can be minimized or eradicated by good Infection Prevention and Control guidelines and good hand hygiene practices. The success of Infection Prevention and Control guidelines program in any hospital is largely impacted by the organizational culture. In any health care setting the management is challenged by the organizational culture to change of any kind. Where implementation of Infection Prevention and Control guidelines

Background: One of the strategies to reduce healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) and promote the quality of disease prevention and control actions is the creation of a hospital infection control program. This program is a set of deliberately and systematically developed actions aimed toward reducing the incidence and severity of infections to the maximum extent possible. In Brazil, studies on the subject still need to be improved; they focus on structural and process assessments, especially the survey of continuing education indicators as a quality requirement for the prevention of HAIs.

Abstract:
Nosocomial infections are a serious issue in Indonesia, with a prevalence of 6–16%. These infections increase morbidity, mortality, hospital stays, and healthcare costs. Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) in hospitals is crucial to reducing the risk of transmission among patients, healthcare workers, and the community. However, IPC program implementation faces challenges such as limited resources, inadequate infrastructure, and noncompliance with protocols. This literature review analyzes the implementation of IPC programs, healthcare workers' adherence to hand hygiene, and factors influen

Results of the Study on the Efficacy of Nosocomial Infection Control (SENIC Project) and the experience with surveillance of surgical wound infections have documented the fact that surveillance is an integral component of an effective nosocomial infection control program.

Abstract:
Under prospective payment utilizing the diagnostic related groups (DRG) classification, hospital administrators have begun to rethink accepted hospital procedures. It is now necessary to consider every factor that contributes to the cost of care, because those costs will be borne more and more by the hospital rather than the patient. Administrators must determine if an expenditure really improves the quality of care and shortens the length of stay. Unfortunately, in many cases there are no mechanisms or criteria for such an evaluation. The health care industry is in danger of cutting away tiss

Aim of the paper is to report the prevalence and epidemiological features of HAI in Vojvodina hospitals. Methods and Objectives: Synchronous point prevalence study (PPS), in all hospitals in Vojvodina province in November 2022, according to the Fifth National PPS and the Second European PPS.

Introduction: According to scientific literature, infectious disease (ID) surveillance by passive, physician notification-based surveillance has low sensitivity. Direct data inputs are required from clinical and reference microbiology to meet the needs of ID public health control programs.

Abstract:
Introduction: The emergence of organisms resistant to multiple antibiotics (MDRO) is a major public health problem in the twenty-first century in all countries of the world. The emergence of MDRO limits the possibilities of adequate antimicrobial treatment of infections and increases morbidity, mortality and healthcare costs in healthcare institutions worldwide. Numerous studies indicate a significant association between the level of antibiotic consumption and the frequency of antibiotic resistance. According to data from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (SDS) from 2019, 2.8 milli

Background An estimated 292 million people are living with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection globally, including 223,000 people in Australia. HBV diagnosis and linkage of people living with HBV to clinical care is suboptimal in Australia, with 27% of people living with HBV undiagnosed and 77% not receiving regular HBV clinical care. This systematic review aimed to characterize population-level interventions implemented to enhance all components of HBV care cascade and analyse the effectiveness of interventions.

This Evidence Snapshot was commissioned by the Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Health Care to support decision making on management of hospital inpatients to reduce transmission of COVID-19. It looked at the evidence for physical distancing in hospital wards as a means of preventing or reducing transmission of COVID-19. The review found no strong evidence of the effectiveness of physical distancing in preventing or reducing transmission of COVID-19. The eight included peer-reviewed studies looked at physical density or distancing as part of a broader infection control strategy.

Abstract:
Purpose/Background Central venous catheters (CVC) are typical for critically ill patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). Due to the invasiveness of this procedure, there is a high risk for central line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI). These infections have been known to increase mortality and morbidity, medical costs, and reduce hospital reimbursements. Evidenced-based interventions were grouped to assemble a central line bundle to decrease the number of CLABSIs and improve patient outcomes.

Abstract:
In Egypt, the legal, religious, and societal restrictions on abortion have constrained the provision of high-quality emergency health care services provided to postabortion patients, including links with family planning (FP) services. In 1994, a small-scale pilot study was conducted by the Egyptian Fertility Care Society and the Population Council's ANE OR/TA Project (1995) to improve postabortion care in Egypt. The study intervention included an intensive training program for physicians on the use of Manual Vacuum Aspiration instruments under local anesthesia. Physicians were also instructed

The Population Council has supported a series of studies to improve the quality of postabortion care (PAC) in Egypt. A 1994 pilot study in two Egyptian hospitals showed that upgrading PAC and training physicians in manual vacuum aspiration (MVA), infection control, and counseling led to significant improvements in the care of postabortion patients. The 1997 study, conducted by the Egyptian Fertility Care Society with support from the Population Council, sought to institutionalize improved postabortion medical care and counseling procedures in ten hospitals.
