  1. 1. MRSA and other resistant bacteria : prevalence, patient and staff experiences, wounds and infection control

    Författare :Helene Andersson; Bjöörn Fossum; Christina Lindholm; Mats Kalin; Eva Johansson; Sophiahemmet Högskola; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MRSA; VRE; ESBL; Colonization; Infection control; Wound; Patient experiences; Staff experiences; Nursing care; Qualitative interview; Qualitative content analysis; MRSA;

    Sammanfattning : Antibiotic resistance has become a major and serious global problem in healthcare. Limited treatment options for infections caused by these organisms can lead to increased morbidity and mortality. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Infection control of Staphylococcus aureus : spa typing to elucidate transmission

    Författare :Sara Mernelius; Andreas Matussek; Sture Löfgren; Per-Eric Lindgren; Anders Johansson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Staphylococcus aureus is a commensal of the human flora, primarily colonizing the anterior nares and throat, but it may also cause infections ranging from mild skin and soft tissue infections to severe diseases such as endocarditis and septicemia. S. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Endodontic Infection Control in General Dentistry : Barriers, Facilitators, and Clinical Practice

    Författare :Leona Malmberg; Annika Elisabeth Björkner; Malin Brundin; Gunnar Dahlén; Malmö universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Apical periodontitis is a very common condition. Epidemiological research suggests that nearly 50% of the global adult population may have had at least one affected tooth and that approximately 40% of root-filled teeth may be associated with apical periodontitis. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Pathogen colonisation, transmission and infection control measures in burn patients

    Författare :Marie Lindblad; Fredrik Huss; Jyrki Vuola; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Whole-genome sequencing; Burn injury; Acinetobacter baumannii outbreak; infection control prevention; UVC decontamination;

    Sammanfattning : Burn patients are susceptible to infections due to impaired natural defences when the epidermal barrier is damaged. Moreover, the trauma affects the patient's immune system through local and systemic inflammatory reactions. Adding to that, the need for intensive care treatment with multiple surgical interventions increases the risk of infection. LÄS MER

  5. 5. On approaches to periodontal infection control

    Författare :Cristiano Tomasi; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of the project was to gain understanding of clinical possibilities and applicability of non-surgical periodontal therapy. A clinical study was designed to compare a full-mouth ultrasonic debridement approach with the traditional approach of consecutive sessions of quadrant-wise scaling/root planing with respect to the clinical outcome and long term stability.
