This review aims to explore the public health approach for Infection Prevention within the Total Worker Health (TWH) framework strategy.
The review identifies certain occupations considered high-risk groups for infection. It underscores primary, secondary, and tertiary public health preventive measures align with the TWH approach. Within this framework, the role of raising awareness, emphasizing infection control, worker hygiene, risk assessment, and ensuring healthcare accessibility is emphasized. The importance of early detection, treatment, eradication, and a TWH approach emerges as a central theme. The TWH approach offers a holistic perspective, intertwining occupation-related health risks with overall health and well being.
Adopting the TWH approach, coupled with household-based infection control and eradication strategies, can significantly reduce prevalence, fostering a healthier workforce and diminishing long-term healthcare costs. The review underscores the importance of recognizing as an occupational disease. It calls for further research into the "one-health" perspective on transmission dynamics.
本综述旨在探讨全职工健康（TWH）框架策略中预防感染的公共卫生方法。
该综述确定了某些被视为高感染风险群体的职业。它强调了与TWH方法相一致的一级、二级和三级公共卫生预防措施。在此框架内，强调了提高认识、强调感染控制、工人卫生、风险评估以及确保医疗可及性的作用。早期检测、治疗、根除以及TWH方法的重要性成为一个核心主题。TWH方法提供了一个整体视角，将与职业相关的健康风险与整体健康和福祉交织在一起。
采用TWH方法，结合基于家庭的感染控制和根除策略，可以显著降低患病率，培养更健康的劳动力并减少长期医疗成本。该综述强调了将[疾病名称未明确]视为职业病的重要性。它呼吁进一步研究关于[疾病名称未明确]传播动态的“同一健康”观点。
