The strategy of nosocomial infections control in current situation

The new strategy of nosocomnial infections control is substantiated.

It is determined that the main causes of these infections are lack of epidemiological surveillance in the hospitals, quality of medical care, quality of surgical operations, emergence of hospital strains of pathogens, failure of antiepidemic regimen.

The new policy of nosocomial infections control is formulated - the new system of infection control is developed and introduced into practice at the hospitals. Some of infection control elements are presented and infection control efficiency, which resulting in healthcare quality improvement, is proven (no outbreaks, reduc­tion of incidence of nosocomial infections, improvement of antibiotics use etc.).
