All patients are at risk to develop a Hospital Acquired Infection and many things can play into factor such as age, health conditions, and antibiotics used.
There are many different infections that can happen to a patient while their stay at the hospital for treatment.
The top infections in the United States are Ventilator-associated event, bloodstream infection that happen in the central-line, urinary infection which are brought by catheters, and Surgical site infection. The abuse of antibiotics plays a part to Hospital Acquired Infections which are difficult to treat.
If a hospital device has been defected then the longer it is inside the patient the infection rate is higher. Being in any healthcare environment will put any patient at risk for transmitted infection due from other patients and workers at the hospital.
Team-Member 2 Part ( Her part was Outflow)
MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus Aureus) is a distinctive strain of the Staphylococcus aureus infection that is typically difficult to treat.
The outflow of this system of treatment will be the treated patients once left from the hospital. MRSA, or any other bacterial infection of that magnitude requires round the clock monitoring.
Being that it is resistant to many of antibiotics this does require them to be admitted for further observation. This observation is comprised of:
i. Frequent Checkups
ii. Replenishing IVs (Intravenous Therapy) to keep fluids to keep normal body temperature
iii. Infusion of antibiotics
Once the patient is discharged, follow ups are recommended but not required. Being that this is a harmful bacterium and can spread rapidly, health facilities have developed a preventative regimen and treatments to stop the spread of this infections to other patients.
This was done to reduce he cases of MRSA infections over the time.
