Innate immunity | Adaptive immunity |
Conssists of physicsl barrier skin, chemical barriers, | Conssists of B cells and other cells. |
Phagocytic cells, Natural killer cells, works as part of it. |
Cell mediated immunity, consisting of T cells, (helper T cells, suppressor T cells and cytotoxic T cells) |
Immidiate response | Delayed response |
Non specific | Highly specific |
Prevention of healthcare associated infections:
1): Personal hygiene: hand washing, use of appropriate disinfectatant.
2): Proper use of personal protective equipements PPEs: gowns, eyewears, mask etc, should be clean.
3): Environment and sorounding cleanliness: keeping the sorounding areas clean is most important way to prevent HAIs.
4): Awareness: Very important factor, knowedge of risk associated, manners of coughing sneezing.

3 PICOT questions regard healthcare-acquired infections and infection control
Describe Cancer or Healthcare Associated Infections and give some interventions. What level of prevention does the intervention demonstrate? Provide one specific example of how the intervention could be modified to be culturally sensitive to a different culture in your own community. What health behavior model would you use to implement this intervention and why?
Question 12 The most common types of healthcare-associated infections are: Surgical site infections O Urinary tract infections Healthcare-associated pneumonia and ventilator-associated pneumonia Bloodstream infections Question 13 Key features of the Guinea Worm eradication program include all of the following EXCEPT Assuring that every community in the affected areas has a public water system Vector control activities Distribution of water filtration equipment and education about its use Distribution of filter pipes for individual use Quèstion 14 The mode human-to-human transmission of...
Healthcare-associated infection (HAI) refers to infections contracted in all healthcare settings. Risk factors in the development of HAIS include environment, therapeutic regimen, length of time in the healthcare setting, and patient resistance. Nursing practice focuses on providing a safe and therapeutic environment to protect patients from acquiring infections. Read the scenario and answer the questions that follow. A nurse is caring for a teenage boy who is a victim of a house blaze in an extended care facility. The patient...
