Abstract

Al te vaak lopen patiënten een infectie op in het ziekenhuis. Het probleem is inderdaad groot. Bovendien berichten de media hierover geregeld ongenuanceerd en zelfs onjuist. Terwijl de zorgsector zichzelf almaar strengere normen oplegt.Dit boek biedt een antwoord op vele problemen. Het is ontstaan uit zijn jarenlange praktijkervaring in ziekenhuisinfectiebeheersing en de talrijke vragen van gezondheidsinspectie, patiënten en hun familie, gezondheidswerkers, ziekenhuizen, Een tiental specialisten hebben de tekst becommentarieerd.Het eerste deel is toelichting bij belangrijke begrippen, van Ao-waarde tot zwangere vrouwen. Daarna volgt een overzicht van voorzorgsmaatregelen bij infecties. Een derde deel somt de klinische syndromen of symptomen op waarbij best voorzorgsmaatregelen worden genomen tot de diagnose is gesteld.Het boek is bedoeld voor medici en paramedici die te maken hebben met de zorg voor hygiëne in ziekenhuizen, woon- en zorgcentra, bij de thuiszorg, in de eerstelijnsgezondheid,Uit de inhoud:Alfabetische vraagbaak - Alfabetisch overzicht m.b.t. aard en duur van voorzorgsmaatregelen voor geselecteerde infecties en condities - Klinische syndromen of symptomen waarbij empirisch voorzorgsmaatregelen genomen worden tot de diagnose bekend is - Bibliografie en trefwoordenregister. Over de auteur(s):Guido Demaiter studeerde Ziekenhuisverpleegkunde aan de KATHO in Kortrijk en Medisch-sociale wetenschappen en ziekenhuisbeleid, optie beleid en opleiding van de verpleegkunde, aan de KU Leuven.

Abstract

Infectiepreventie is een basiskenmerk van professionele zorgverlening. Een goed inzicht in alle mogelijke infectiebronnen en overdrachtswegen kan besmettingen helpen voorkomen. Alleen zo kunnen preventieve maatregelen uitgewerkt worden, die ziekenhuisinfecties tot een minimum beperken. Dit handboek zet alle aspecten van infectiepreventie duidelijk uiteen, zowel voor de basiszorg als voor gespecialiseerde verpleegtechnische handelingen. Nieuw aan deze druk is een uitbreiding van de online content, voor het eerst aangeboden op het dynamische en gebruiksvriendelijke online leerplatform Sofia.De volgende onderwerpen komen uitgebreid aan bod in het boek en in het digitale oefenmateriaal: ziekenhuisinfecties; handhygiëne; reiniging, ontsmetting en sterilisatie van oppervlakken, materiaal, instrumenten en levende weefsels; algemene voorzorgsmaatregelen en isolatiemaatregelen, in het bijzonder voor MRSA, Clostridium en Bijzonder Resistente Micro-organismen; urineweginfecties; wondinfecties; bloedbaaninfecties; luchtweginfecties; voeding; linnen; afvalverwijdering; registratie van ziekenhuisinfecties, zorgbundels, patiëntveiligheid en FONA; veiligheids- en gezondheidsdiensten in ziekenhuizen. Bij elk onderwerp worden de verschillende aspecten van kwaliteitszorg besproken, zoals geschikte materiële voorzieningen, procesbewaking en resultaatopvolging.De didactische opbouw maakt dit boek uitermate geschikt als handboek voor de opleiding verpleegkunde. Bovendien is het een nuttig naslagwerk voor elke medische en paramedische hulpverlener.

Abstract

Infections in critically ill patients are more common than in most other parts of the hospital, and are often the most complicated to manage.  Underlying disease and the reasons for admission make the diagnosis, management and prevention of infection challenging. Developments in technology, the treatment of previously untreatable malignancies, complex surgery procedures, and an increasing age profile result in more patients vulnerable to infection and a greater number of patients needing critical care support.   Infections in the Adult Intensive Care Unit is designed to help trainee and practicising physician, surgeon or other medical professional manage the acutely ill patient in the critical care unit, before transfer from the emergency department, or on the hospital ward where effective management may avoid admission to the critical care unit. It has been co-authored by a clinical microbiologist, intensivist and clinical infectious diseases physician to cover some of the major infections presenting in the adult critical care unit.  It provides broad principles to be used based on the latest evidence combined with common sense and the results of many years of combined experience.

Abstract

Florence Nightingale began working on hospital reform even before she founded her famous school of nursing; hospitals were dangerous places for nurses as well as patients, and they urgently needed fundamental reform. She continued to work on safer hospital design, location, and materials to the end of her working life, advising on plans for children's, general, military, and convalescent hospitals and workhouse infirmaries. Florence Nightingale and Hospital Reform, the final volume in the Collected Works of Florence Nightingale, includes her influential Notes on Hospitals, with its much-quoted musing on the need of a Hippocratic oath for hospitals--namely, that first they should do the sick no harm. Nightingale's anonymous articles on hospital design are printed here also, as are later encyclopedia entries on hospitals. Correspondence with architects, engineers, doctors, philanthropists, local notables, and politicians is included. The results of these letters, some with detailed critiques of hospital plans, can be seen initially in the great British examples of the new "pavilion" design--at St. Thomas', London (a civil hospital), at the Herbert Hospital (military), and later at many hospitals throughout the UK and internationally. Nightingale's insistence on keeping good statistics to track rates of mortality and hospital stays, and on using them to compare hospitals, can be seen as good advice for today, given the new versions of "hospital-acquired infections" she combatted.

Abstract

The WHO Guidelines on Hand Hygiene in Health Care provide health-care workers (HCWs) hospital administrators and health authorities with a thorough review of evidence on hand hygiene in health care and specific recommendations to improve practices and reduce transmission of pathogenic microorganisms to patients and HCWs. The present Guidelines are intended to be implemented in any situation in which health care is delivered either to a patient or to a specific group in a population. Therefore this concept applies to all settings where health care is permanently or occasionally performed, such as home care by birth attendants.
