Infection Control Summary: Infection control in a health care facility is the prevention of the spread of microorganisms between patient to patient‚ patient to staff member‚ and staff member to patient. Health care workers. All health care workers who have contact with patients and equipment must all adhere to the Infection Control Policies and Procedures to prevent from spreading infection to one another. In most of the health care facilities‚ many ill people are being treated and cared for

Infection Control Infection control is a very important topic‚ as there are many diseases and viruses that can spread very quickly if the correct action is not taken to stop them. Infection control concentrates on issues related to the spread of infections within the health-care setting‚ they can be spread patient-to-patient‚ from patients to staff‚ and from staff to patients. A few of the main aspects of infection control are prevention‚ monitoring/investigation of spread of infection‚ and management

Neural & Synaptic Transmission The nervous system is made up of neurons and glila cells. Neurons are the basic communication links in the nervous system. Glila cell provide support for neurons and contribute to communication. Neurons normally transmit a neural impulse (an electric current) along an axon to a synapse with another neuron. The neural impulse is a brief change in neuron’s electrical charge that moves along an axon. It is an all-or-none event. Action potential triggers

FM TRANSMISSION SYSTEM The basic communications system has: Transmitter: The sub-system that takes the information signal and processes it prior to transmission. The transmitter modulates the information onto a carrier signal‚ amplifies the signal and broadcasts it over the channel Channel: The medium which transports the modulated signal to the receiver. Air acts as the channel for broadcasts like radio. Receiver: The sub-system that takes in the transmitted signal from the channel

Pathogens have evolved and have various ways to transmit from one host to another. Transmission from one host to another is one way how microbes are able to survive in a long run and maintain their species survivability. If pathogens were not able to transmit‚ upon the death of the host‚ the microbes would not have any means to infect another host. Some pathogens have only one mean of transmitting whereas there are other pathogens that can be transmitted via many different methods. In general‚ there

putting your fingers in your mouth can potentially give you food poisoning so a couple of bites of an uncooked burger would be enough to ensure a few bad stomachs the next day. Bacteria can get into your body in many ways; the first one is Droplet infection so when you cough‚ sneeze or talk you expel tiny droplets full of pathogens from your breathing system and then other people breathe that in. The second is Direct Contact which means that some diseases are spread by direct contact of the skin. The

Introduction Electric drive system is a vehicle that powered by electricity. Its popularity was quite supporting during the late 19th century and early 20th century. It is equipped with an electric motor and a controller. On the other hand‚ the hybrid car is a drive system which uses more than one power sources to drive the system‚ thus it runs with a battery powered electric motor and an internal combustion engine. In this report i will describe the features‚ operations and applications of both

Everyone has yeast in the body‚ but it is required in minimal quantities. However due to various reasons like lifestyle change‚ medications‚ foods we eat‚ and type of clothing that we use‚ you find many people struggling with yeast infections. It is also referred to as Candida. Women are the most hit though a few men too finds themselves in this mess. But have you realized that apart from the doctor’s medications there are natural ways one can end this menace? Try this homemade easy‚ and natural

Causes and spread of infection Micro-organisms that cause infections are known as pathogens. They may be classified as follows: Bacteria: minute organisms about one-thousandth to five-thousandths of a millimetre in diameter. They are susceptible to a greater or lesser extent to antibiotics. Viruses: much smaller than bacteria and although they may survive outside the body for a time they can only grow inside cells of the body. Viruses are not susceptible to antibiotics‚ but there are a few
