Construction or renovation projects in hospitals pose special challenges. Infection control personnel should be involved in all phases of these projects to ensure that patients, visitors, and staff are protected from unnecessary exposure to infectious agents. Infection control personnel must identify the infection risks posed by each project and must plan ways to minimize the risk. Infection control personnel also must ensure that municipal, county, state, and federal infection control guidelines and regulations are met. This article will discuss basic infection control issues encountered during construction and renovation, offer practical suggestions for addressing these issues, discuss common questions that infection control personnel must address, and describe outbreaks related to construction and renovation.
医院的新建或翻修项目带来了特殊挑战。感染控制人员应参与这些项目的各个阶段，以确保患者、访客和工作人员免受不必要的感染源暴露。感染控制人员必须识别每个项目带来的感染风险，并必须规划降低风险的方法。感染控制人员还必须确保符合市、县、州和联邦的感染控制指南及法规。本文将讨论新建和翻修过程中遇到的基本感染控制问题，提供解决这些问题的实用建议，讨论感染控制人员必须解决的常见问题，并描述与新建和翻修相关的疫情。
