Diagnostics for congenital syphilis (CS) relies on multiple factors resulting in prolonged monitoring to determine neonatal infection. This results from the lack of sensitive tests confirm maternal infection and detect CS at birth. Novel molecular tests, including real-time PCR assays targeting T. pallidum-specific genes, have been developed improve sensitivity pathogen detection. The aim this ...
AN EFFECTIVE skin preparation agent cleans away microbes, then continues to inhibit pathogen growth between dressing changes. For central venous access devices (CVADs), this has traditionally been accomplished with three alcohol swabsticks and three povidone-iodine swabsticks applied in concentric circles from the insertion site outward. But new guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control a...
The evaluation of child growth trajectories and the interventions designed to improve child health are highly dependent on the growth charts used. The U.S. CDC and the WHO, in May 2000 and April 2006, respectively, released new growth charts to replace the 1977 NCHS reference. The WHO charts are based for the first time on a prescriptive, prospective, international sample of infants selected to...
In September 2006, the US CDC issued new guidelines for HIV testing. These guidelines were designed not only to simplify and expand HIV testing but also to integrate testing into routine medical care in the USA. The nationwide implementation of these guidelines is currently facing several political and legal barriers. In this article, we examine the origins of current patient-driven and risk-ba...
After a precipitous increase in the incidence of infectious syphilis in the United States during the late 1980s and early 1990s, the rate of new cases has declined so dramatically that a program initiated by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to achieve elimination appears to stand a good chance of succeeding. In the fall of 2000, the CDC convened an advisory group to examine ...
US health officials have been scrambling to tighten up their control protocols and procedures after the emergency room staff of a hospital in Dallas, Texas, misdiagnosed the first case of Ebola in the US—in a Liberian man who became ill shortly after arriving from west Africa—and two of the hospital’s nursing staff contracted the disease while caring for him. On 20 October, the US Centers for D...
Healthcare associated infections (HCAI) are huge problem all over the world, and 5-10% of all hospitalized patients will develop infection during hospitalization. From the times of I. P. Semelweiss we know that clean hands are the most important single factor that can decrease the number of HCAI. World Health Organization (WHO) has recognised this problem and developed Guidelines for hand hygie...
In November 1997, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released revised guidelines for lead poisoning screening, including a recommendation that states and regions individualize screening policies based on local prevalence of elevated lead levels. The purpose of this study was to collect prevalence data for a Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, inner-city pediatric outpatient population...
