infection can have clinical consequences that
range from minor insignificant inflammation to
considerable pain and suffering wound
disruption, septicemia and even death Re-
operation and prolonged hospitalization are Outcome
often required. The incidence of wound infection
can be reduced by proper/pre, and pot-operative
care, in particular strict hygiene. It is long
known that hospital staff tends to neglect simple
measures like hand washing and use of
disinfectants
Given the high cost of hospital care is of great
importance to reduce the incidence of such

Policy for Surveillance for infected cases


Definition:
Nosocomial infection is the infection that were not existing (Or wasn't clinically)
evident) at the time of admission.

Methods of detecting Nosocomial infection in the hospital ( source of data)

1.1- Samples referred for cultures to the lab.


2. 2- Clinical rounds with physicians & nurses of departments
Esp. ICU, CCU, dialysis, endoscopies, clinical wards
 Ask about new symptoms or signs of infection:
Fever with chills
Fever with chest symptoms
Fever with GIT symptoms
Fever with Urinary tract symptoms
Fever with Rash
Fever with Swellings, LNs.
 Fever of unknown origin >/ two weeks
 Include & follow up of these cases
 Ask for lab culture & sensitivity
 If C/S results was positive it has to be included in the report
 Add to surgical cases, ask about wound dressing
 Who dose the dressing
 Frequency of dressing
 Any oozing
 Delayed healing
 Drains.
 Include & follow up All diabetic patients with fever ,diabetic foot
3. Readmitted cases (within 7 days, 30 days) for:
 Fever
 SSI ( surgical site infection )
