Collected into one source, this text represents the most up-to-date and officially endorsed guidelines of infection control, gathered together and organized for easy reference and use in any healthcare facility. The introductory chapters provide essential information on epidemiology, as well as background concerning the different types of guidelines for control and how they are used. The next section presents broad coverage of infection control and the key components in an infection control program. Following this foundation, the guidelines themselves are presented in sections that focus on the areas of: Facility Size or Location of Service; Site of Infection; Selected Clinical Problems; and Facility-Based Guidelines. Experts in infection control offer a "guide to the guidelines" with their succinct interpretations and critiques of each guideline, providing insight into what works, what doesn't, and why. Where applicable, the guidelines are reproduced at the end of the chapter either in full or in extract format.
