What is IC & Prevention?
• Infection control addresses – factors related to the spread of infections within the health-
care setting (whether patient-to-patient, from patients to staff and from staff to patients, or among-staff)
• including prevention of acquiring new infections (via hand hygiene/hand washing, cleaning/disinfection/sterilization, vaccination, surveillance)
– monitoring/investigation of demonstrated or suspected spread of infection within a particular health-care setting (surveillance and outbreak investigation)
– management (interruption of outbreaks)– immunization of HCW/Pt

Contact!!!
Most important route
of transmission of HAI
is the direct contact
from the hands of health care
worker
![Page 11: Hospital Infection Control and Prevention Programme Dr Wasana Kudagammana 1 Why and How?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56649dea5503460f94ae4f37/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Sources of HAIs
• Hands of staff – direct contact• Environment indirect contact• Contaminated instruments / equipment• IV lines – central & peripheral• Assisted ventilation equipment• Suction & drainage bottles• Urinary catheters• Wounds & wound dressings• Procedures
![Page 13: Hospital Infection Control and Prevention Programme Dr Wasana Kudagammana 1 Why and How?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56649dea5503460f94ae4f37/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Guidelines and recommendations
• Hand washing • Hospital environmental
control & instrument care
• Intravascular Device-Related Infections and its control
• Isolation Precautions• Immunization of HCW
![Page 14: Hospital Infection Control and Prevention Programme Dr Wasana Kudagammana 1 Why and How?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56649dea5503460f94ae4f37/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Handwashing is the single most important procedure for preventing the transmission of nosocomial infections.
![Page 15: Hospital Infection Control and Prevention Programme Dr Wasana Kudagammana 1 Why and How?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56649dea5503460f94ae4f37/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Simple evidence…
Hand hygiene is the single most effective measure to reduce HCAIs

1st principle of infection prevention
At least 35-50% of all nosocomial infections
associates with patient care practices:
• Hand hygiene and standard precautions
• Use and care of urinary catheters• Use and care of vascular access lines• Therapy and support of pulmonary
functions• Experience with surgical procedures

Surveillance
• The key to success - ongoing monitoring /surveillance for nosocomial infections
• Various techniques for surveillance have been described and evaluated including total house surveillance, targeted surveillance, Kardex, or laboratory-base
![Page 32: Hospital Infection Control and Prevention Programme Dr Wasana Kudagammana 1 Why and How?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56649dea5503460f94ae4f37/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

Infection Control Programme and Documentation
• Goals of the infection control program need to be incorporated into the mission statement of the facility
• A mission statement should tell who you are, what you do, and should communicate a clear view of purpose and set a strategy for accomplishing the goal!

Health Care Workers are at Risk – Need for Vaccination
• Health care workers may be exposed to certain infections in the course of their work
• Vaccines are available to provide some protection to workers in a healthcare setting
• Depending on regulation, recommendation, the specific work function, or personal preference, healthcare workers or first responders may receive vaccinations for hepatitis B, measles, mumps and rubella;
Tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis; N. meningitides; and varicella.
• The problem of resources for proving Vaccines in Developing countries continues to be real problem, need additional economic resources
