内容説明

This up-to-date and authoritative reference provides an encyclopedic collection of hospital and institutional infection control and epidemiology guidelines. Remarkably comprehensive, it assembles into a single volume virtually every published infection control guideline from the CDC and other federal agencies, professional societies, expert groups, and more. Authorities in infection control offer succinct interpretations and critiques of each guideline, giving readers valuable insight into what works, what doesn't, and why. The book is conveniently organized so that specific content can be quickly and easily accessed when needed. Features: * Provides clear descriptions of gaps in current guidelines, as well as areas of controversy. * Gives information and recommendations for areas currently not addressed by available guidelines. * Includes major, influential guidelines from other countries. * Offers guidance on establishing infection control and quality assurance programs and performing in-service education
