5 MRSA-positive patients tend to shed their own strain of MRSA into the near-patient environment. Two-thirds of HCW will acquire the patient s strain on gloved hands or apron. Without direkt contact four out of ten ten will still exit the room carrying the patient s strain of MRSA on hands or apron.
6 Evidenced based medicine Evidenced based cleaning?
7 Mean proportion of positive results of cultures of environmental and hand samples decreased in period 2 and remained low thereafter CID 2006:42 June Hayden
8 The environmental detection rate for MRSA or VRE was 24.7% compared with 4.9% for multi-resistant gramnegative bacteria
9 The most common nosocomial pathogens( gram positives and enterobacteriaceae) may well survive or persist on surfaces for months and can thereby be a continuous source of transmission if no regular preventive surface disinfection is performed.
10 Transmitters of Infection Staff Medical Nursing Domestic Other support staff Patients Attendants- family and friends
11 Transmission DIRECT Hands- contact Nasal-droplet Throat- droplet Stool-aerosol INDIRECT Bedpans/urinals Dressing trolleys Mattresses Mops & buckets Hand disinfection equipment
12 HANDS Commonest cause of cross infection Medical staff Nursing staff Other patients Visitors Organisms Multiply antibiotic resistant GNR & GPC
13 Nasal Carriage Low transmission Associated with perineal carriage Organisms Staph aureus ( MSSA) and MRSA Outbreak MSSA Neonatology Streptococci Grp A 5th Nov day 3
14 Stool Carriage Reservoir for GNB (MDR) Associated with multiple antibiotic therapy particularly cephalosporins, carbapenems, aminoglycosides and quinolones Patients Directly by contact with hands of staff or other patients Indirectly via poorly disinfected bedpans/urinals
15 What is included in housekeeping? Differs from one country to another and from one hospital to another House keeping falls under a separate section and is not a nursing duty However, the nurse-in-charge is responsible for the cleanliness of the ward and surrounding areas. Time pressure, number of nurses available!!
16 House keeping Cleaning of the ward and surrounding areas Removal of waste. Removal of linen. Stocks of fresh linen Replacing waste containers Replacing hand decontamination items Cleaning ward disinfectors Cleaning non clinical equipment
17 Protection of domestic staff Routine protective clothing Domestic gloves & plastic aprons Isolation areas Inform domestic staff of Appropriate protective clothing Cleaning policy Segregation of cleaning items Removal of waste- close and tag inside room before removal Removal of linen- close and label before removal
18 Average RLU cleaned by domestic staff were 64% lower compared with surfaces cleaned by clinical supportive staff
19 Systems to evaluate environmental cleanliness, process indicators Visual inspection ATP Fluorescence marker Microbiology Bacterial or viral culture PCR
20
21 ATP Sampling
22 Measurement Rapid Use it for training Low variation in samples Biological contamination is not synonymous with microbiological contamination!
23
24 Bacterial culture
25 Laboratory Culture of bacteria susceptibility testing, molecular typing Availability of a lab and trained personel Slow
26 Fluorescence marker
