Risk Factors for Surgical Site Infection in a Tanzanian District Hospital: A Challenge for the Traditional National Nosocomial Infections Surveillance System Index
Infection Control and Hospital Epidemiology - Tập 27 Số 12 - Trang 1401-1404 - 2006
Jan Fehr, Christoph Hatz, Isaac Soka, Patience Kibatala, Honorathy Urassa, Thomas Smith, Hassan Mshinda, Reno Frei, Andreas F. Widmer
The incidence of surgical site infections (SSIs) was 24% in a district hospital in Tanzania. Wound classification was not an independent risk factor for SSI, indicating that risk scores developed in industrialized countries may require adjustments for nonindustrialized countries. The National Nosocomial Infections Surveillance system score required adjustments to reliably predict SSI, prob...... hiện toàn bộ

Infection Control and Hospital Epidemiology - Tập 39 Số 1 - Trang 20-31 - 2018
Alexandre R. Marra, Marin L. Schweizer, Michael B. Edmond
BACKGROUNDRecent studies have shown that using no-touch disinfection technologies (ie, ultraviolet light [UVL] or hydrogen peroxide vapor [HPV] systems) can limit the transmission of nosocomial pathogens and prevent healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). To investigate these findings further, we performed a...... hiện toàn bộ
