ANSWERS
health |care-associated |infections |(HAIs)
nosocomial |infection
localized |or |systemic |infections- |not |present |during |admission |to |facility
acquired |or |occurring |in |a |hospital
present |in |1/20 |hospitalized |patients
#1 |reason |for |hospitalization
chain |of |infection
occurs |when |there |is |an |outbreak
infectious |agent, |reservoir, |portal |of |exit, |transmission, |portal |of |entry, |host |susceptibility
course |of |infection |by |stage
incubation |period: |exposed |to |virus, |initial |onset
prodromal |stage: |early |signs/ |symptoms |of |infection |develop, |can |transmit |to |others
illness |stage: |fatigue, |bedrest, |100% |infected
convaslescence: |when |symptoms |disappear |can |return |to |normal |activities
defence |against |infection
, normal |flora
body |system |defences
Inflammation- |vascular |and |cellular |responses, |inflammatory |exudate, |tissue |repair
aseptic |technique
asepsis: |absence |of |pathogenic |microorganisms
medical |asepsis
clean |technique
reduces |organisms
prevents |transfer
ex.) |washing |hands, |changing |linens, |sanitize

destroys |microorganisms |and |their |spores
medical |asepsis |principles
always |know |patient's |susceptibility |to |infection |(age, |nutritional |status, |stress, |disease |
processes, |and |forms |of |medical |therapy)
recognize |elements |of |chain |infection |& |initiate |measures |to |prevent |onset |and |spread |of |
