Nosocomial infections are one of the most common causes of death in hospitals. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of gram-negative bacilli isolated from the equipment in hospital wards of the Golestan province, in the year 2015. In this cross-sectional study in 2015, 1980 samples from medical and nonmedical equipment and surfaces were collected from the wards of 13 teaching hospitals,...
BACKGROUND Despite standard manual decontamination, hospital equipment remains contaminated with microorganisms, contributing to nosocomial transmission and hospital acquired infections. This has the potential to negate the effects of healthcare workers' hand-washing protocols. In order to decrease the likelihood of equipment contamination, there has been a rise in the use of disposable pieces ...
We evaluated a personal protective equipment removal protocol designed to minimize wearer contamination with pathogens. Following this protocol often resulted in virus transfer to hands and clothing. An altered protocol or other measures are needed to prevent healthcare worker contamination.
Background and Aim: Risk of mortality associated with nosocomial infections in health centers as a problem has always existed. These infections can be transmitted through contact with the environment or equipment to patients. Therefore, the present study was conducted with the aim of evaluating the frequency of bacterial contamination in different parts of the center Educational and therapeutic...
A new requirement from The Joint Commission (JC) is that flexible and rigid endoscopes must be included in a clinical engineering (CE) department’s medical equipment inventory. The primary justification for this, according to George Mills, senior engineer at the JC, is that endoscopes are considered to be diagnostic equipment. CE departments do not have to maintain or service endoscopes, howeve...
Intensive care unit (ICU)-acquired infections are a challenging health problem worldwide, especially when caused by multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogens. In ICUs, inanimate surfaces and equipment (e.g., bedrails, stethoscopes, medical charts, ultrasound machine) may be contaminated by bacteria, including MDR isolates. Cross-transmission of microorganisms from inanimate surfaces may have a signif...
