A survey was conducted in seven hospitals to assess the risk of cross-infection with the highly infectious air-borne diseases, varicella-zoster and measles, in isolation wards of different design. Existing wards and isolation techniques were found to afford a high degree of protection, but there was considerable variation in the incidence of cross-infection related to ward structure, ward practice and the availability of trained staff. Recommendations are made for the design of new isolation wards and for safe practice.
在七家医院开展了一项调查,以评估不同设计的隔离病房中感染高传染性空气传播疾病(水痘 - 带状疱疹和麻疹)的交叉感染风险。结果发现,现有的病房和隔离技术能提供高度保护,但与病房结构、病房操作以及训练有素的工作人员的可获得性相关的交叉感染发生率存在很大差异。针对新建隔离病房的设计和安全操作提出了建议。
