The second edition of this highly successful book provides a comprehensive guide to the principles and practice of infection control and prevention, and the basic elements of microbiology and epidemiology that underpin them. This revised edition contains new illustrations to aid understanding, updated references, and new material on emerging pathogens, antimicrobial resistance and clinical governance. The evidence-base for infection control practice has been fully revised to take into account new research and guidance, and many sections, such as isolation, routine infection control precautions and the epidemiology of infection have been expanded. The contents are firmly based in clinical practice and relevant to both hospital and community settings. The information is research-based and extensively referenced, and therefore provides an invaluable resource for evidence-based practice. Presentation is clear, concise and accessible to a wide audience, including diploma and degree course students, nurses and allied health professionals working in clinical settings, and infection control specialists.
