This practical, state-of-the-art guide to infection control for the hospital team reviews the entire spectrum of practice, from patient surveillance to isolation techniques to epidemic investigations. Relating basic clinical information in infectious disease and epidemiology to modern practice, it outlines common nosocomial infections and the role of the team in identifying them, provides a detailed analysis of how to manage nosocomial infections, and describes the structure of an effective infection control program. This edition reflects the expansion of scientific data on infection control and the impact of computer-use in aiding this process as well as major revisions in IC policies, largely in response to AIDS. Also addressed are the ways in which the introduction of DRGs and other changes in the healthcare system have affected IC programs.
