Description:
Infection prevention and control is vital within a veterinary setting, but can find itself an automated part of care – and therefore vulnerable to time constraints, forgetfulness, and routine. This book is written by experts in the field and uses evidence-based findings to elevate infection prevention to a well understood, dynamic concept, relevant to both veterinary practitioners and nurses in practice.
Comparing key findings to the human healthcare world, this book:
Maximizes learning opportunities with lots of practical examples and cases;Provides practical how-to sections, such as setting up a surveillance program; andBases findings on current veterinary literature.Beginning with an introduction to the importance of infection control, dedicated chapters in this book then consider key principles such as hand hygiene, personal protective equipment, infection control for the surgical and hospitalized patient, and care for immunosuppressed individuals. Importantly, this book presents an up-to-date exploration of responsible antibiotic use in the context of rising resistance.
