RESPONSE TO INFECTION Response

depends on organism and host normal course of infection

1st phase (incubation period) when pathogen enters the body to the appearance of first symptoms

2nd phase (prodromal stage) from appearance of first symptoms to more severe symptoms

Page 27: Infection, Asepsis and Sterile Technique. 2 MICROORGANISMS living cells found everywhere in the environment can be beneficial mold for cheese.

27

RESPONSE TO INFECTION Response

normal course of infection 3rd phase (full stage)

symptoms are acute and specific to type of infection

final phase (convalescence stage)

when acute symptoms subside and patient recovers

Page 28: Infection, Asepsis and Sterile Technique. 2 MICROORGANISMS living cells found everywhere in the environment can be beneficial mold for cheese.

RESPONSE TO INFECTION

Factors that Influence Infection Body’s defense mechanisms Portal of entry

only if they gain accessto the body through a specific portal of entry

Number of microorganism greater the number,

greater the opportunity to cause disease

Page 29: Infection, Asepsis and Sterile Technique. 2 MICROORGANISMS living cells found everywhere in the environment can be beneficial mold for cheese.

RESPONSE TO INFECTION Factors that Influence Infection

Virulence pathogen’s strength to cause disease

protective capsules enzymes

Host resistance some normal flora have an antibiotic relationship

NOSOCOMIAL INFECTION

Conditions that Increase the Risk broad spectrum antibiotic

used frequently failure of appropriate proper

technique multiple healthcare personnel prolonged hospitalization lowered resistance to disease

eliminate organisms that can cause infection and disease

medical asepsis clean technique

surgical asepsis sterile technique

MEDICAL ASEPSIS

Definition (Medical Asepsis) components

reduce/prevent number of microorganism transmissions

HANDWASHING barrier techniques clean environment

Page 34: Infection, Asepsis and Sterile Technique. 2 MICROORGANISMS living cells found everywhere in the environment can be beneficial mold for cheese.

34

MEDICAL ASEPSIS Medical Asepsis

HANDWASHING single most effective measure

to prevent the spread of disease

barrier technique (PPE) keep organisms from

entering or leaving therespiratory tract, your eyesor breaks in the skin

Page 35: Infection, Asepsis and Sterile Technique. 2 MICROORGANISMS living cells found everywhere in the environment can be beneficial mold for cheese.

MEDICAL ASEPSIS

Medical Asepsis gloves

latex allergy eye protection

goggles/glasses gowns/aprons

fluid resistant masks

disposable

Page 36: Infection, Asepsis and Sterile Technique. 2 MICROORGANISMS living cells found everywhere in the environment can be beneficial mold for cheese.

MEDICAL ASEPSIS

leaving a patient’s room discard

gown/mask/gloves HANDWASHING terminal disinfecting

patient and family teaching

HANDWASHING hygienic practices aseptic technique

Page 37: Infection, Asepsis and Sterile Technique. 2 MICROORGANISMS living cells found everywhere in the environment can be beneficial mold for cheese.

37

SURGICAL ASEPSIS Asepsis

dirty not been cleaned or sterilized

clean many or the most harmful microorganisms have been removed

sterile free of all microorganisms and spores

Page 38: Infection, Asepsis and Sterile Technique. 2 MICROORGANISMS living cells found everywhere in the environment can be beneficial mold for cheese.

38

SURGICAL ASEPSIS Sterile Technique

no organisms are carried to the patient

used during dressing changes, administering parenteral medications & sterile procedures

first sterilize articles and prevent contact with unsterile articles

Page 39: Infection, Asepsis and Sterile Technique. 2 MICROORGANISMS living cells found everywhere in the environment can be beneficial mold for cheese.

39

SURGICAL ASEPSIS

Disinfection & Sterilization disinfectants destroy most

pathogens but not necessarily their spores

sterilization destroys all pathogens and spores

Sterile Protective Measures hair covering, surgical mask,

sterile gown and sterile gloves

Page 40: Infection, Asepsis and Sterile Technique. 2 MICROORGANISMS living cells found everywhere in the environment can be beneficial mold for cheese.

40

INFECTION CONTROL Standard Precautions

Universal Precautions reduce risk of transmission of blood-borne pathogens

Body Substance Isolation (BSI)

reduce transmission from moist body substances

Page 41: Infection, Asepsis and Sterile Technique. 2 MICROORGANISMS living cells found everywhere in the environment can be beneficial mold for cheese.

41

INFECTION CONTROL

Standard Precautions must consider ALL patients

are potentially infected wear gloves when in contact with

blood, body fluids, non-intact skin, mucous membranes or contaminated items & change them after each contact

HANDWASHING if contaminated with blood, body fluids, after each patient contact & after removing gloves

Page 42: Infection, Asepsis and Sterile Technique. 2 MICROORGANISMS living cells found everywhere in the environment can be beneficial mold for cheese.

42

INFECTION CONTROL Standard Precautions

wear a gown/apron when clothing could become soiled

wear mask, eye protection/face shield if splashing of blood/body fluids is possible

do not recap/break needles use proper sharps container report any exposures clean equipment after each use

Page 43: Infection, Asepsis and Sterile Technique. 2 MICROORGANISMS living cells found everywhere in the environment can be beneficial mold for cheese.

43

INFECTION CONTROL

Transmission-Based Precautions airborne precautions

tiny microorganisms from evaporated droplets remain suspended in the air or carried by dust particles & inhaled

TB, measles and chickenpox private negative pressure room doors of rooms kept closed high-filtration particulate respirator

Page 44: Infection, Asepsis and Sterile Technique. 2 MICROORGANISMS living cells found everywhere in the environment can be beneficial mold for cheese.

44

INFECTION CONTROL Transmission-Based Precautions droplet precautions

microorganisms are propelled through the air through sneezing, coughing, talking or suctioning

meningitis, pneumonia, influenza, mumps, rubella, and etc.

mask and private room doors may remain open

Page 45: Infection, Asepsis and Sterile Technique. 2 MICROORGANISMS living cells found everywhere in the environment can be beneficial mold for cheese.

45

INFECTION CONTROL Transmission-Based Precautions

contact precautions most frequent mode of transmission direct contact of body surface indirect contact such as needle/hand HEP A, herpes simplex virus, acute diarrhea, draining abscess & etc.

gloves, gown and private room use in ADDITION to Standard Precautions

Page 46: Infection, Asepsis and Sterile Technique. 2 MICROORGANISMS living cells found everywhere in the environment can be beneficial mold for cheese.

46

INFECTION CONTROL Isolation

administering medications unwrap before going into pt’s room use disposable med trays and cups don’t take med cards into pt’s room HANDWASHING needles/syringes in sharps container use & discard IV bags in pt’s room dispose of all materials in pt’s room

Page 47: Infection, Asepsis and Sterile Technique. 2 MICROORGANISMS living cells found everywhere in the environment can be beneficial mold for cheese.

47

INFECTION CONTROL Isolation

sending a specimen to the laboratory

before collecting, label container

place into bag with “biohazard” label

HANDWASHING

Page 48: Infection, Asepsis and Sterile Technique. 2 MICROORGANISMS living cells found everywhere in the environment can be beneficial mold for cheese.

48

INFECTION CONTROL

Isolation taking vital signs

use equipment in patient’s room

wear PPE as indicated use clock in patient’s room,

not your watch use disposable temperature

system

Page 49: Infection, Asepsis and Sterile Technique. 2 MICROORGANISMS living cells found everywhere in the environment can be beneficial mold for cheese.

49

INFECTION CONTROL

Isolation

transporting the patient to other areas

wear PPE as indicated to include pt

control/contain patient’s drainage

escort ambulatory patients notify other areas of

patient’s precautions disinfect transportation

device

Page 50: Infection, Asepsis and Sterile Technique. 2 MICROORGANISMS living cells found everywhere in the environment can be beneficial mold for cheese.

50

INFECTION CONTROL Isolation

caring for the patient’s body after death take special precautions to prevent spread of infection

protective (reverse) isolation protection from outside environment for weakened immune response pts burns or bone marrow transplants, HIV positive, chemotherapy and etc.
