“Whoever refuses to remember the inhumanity is prone to new risks of infection”
-Richard Von Weizeaecker.
Nosocomial infection is an infection acquired in hospital at least 72hours after admission. Also called hospital acquired infection. All infection diagnosed 48 hours after admission till 72 hours after discharge should be considered as nosocomial .All infections in new born delivered in the hospital need to be considered “Acquired” except those caused by organisms reaching the body from the mother or before the time of birth. This is true in early onset of systematic sepsis caused by Ecoli, streptococci Group B. Listeria monocytogenes etc .Nosocomial infection accounts for half of all major complications of hospitalization; the rest are medication errors, patient falls, and other non-infectious events. In American hospitals, cross infection affects between 5-10% of patients at a cost in excess of $4.5 billion. Further, with the advent of HMOs and incentives for out patient care, hospitals now have a concentrated population of seriously ill patients, and an even greater risk of nosocomial infection.Statistics show that about 35 million patients are admitted to
