Nosocomial infections, especially those involving resistant microorganisms, represent one of the challenging problems of modern medicine. Health care providers play an important role in the transmission of these infections. White coats and neckties are among the culprits implicated as vectors for transmission of infections by health care providers. Both pathogenic and non-pathogenic bacteria commonly colonize neckties and avoiding neckties is a simple measure that may prove helpful in our fight against nosocomial infections.
医院感染,尤其是那些涉及耐药微生物的感染,是现代医学面临的挑战性问题之一。医护人员在这些感染的传播中起着重要作用。白大褂和领带被认为是医护人员传播感染的罪魁祸首之一。致病性和非致病性细菌通常会在领带上定植,避免佩戴领带是一项简单的措施,可能有助于我们对抗医院感染。
