In the past years infections caused by multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria have dramatically increased in all parts of world. This consensus paper is based on presentations, subsequent discussions and an appraisal current literature a panel international experts invited Rudolf Schülke Stiftung, Hamburg. It deals with epidemiology inherent properties bacteria, elucidating patterns spread antibiotic resistance, highlighting reservoirs as well transmission pathways risk factors for...
Considering emerging and newly identified health risksOn request of the European Commission, independent Scientific Committee on Emerging Newly Identified Health Risks (SCENIHR) was requested to assess whether use nanosilver, in particular medical care or consumer products, could result additional risks compared more traditional uses silver nanosilver control bacterial growth resistance micro-organisms.The full text SCE-NIHR Opinion is freely accessible [1].This Comment looks at several...
To perform an international trial to derive alert and action levels for the use of quantitative PCR (qPCR) in monitoring Legionella determine effectiveness control measures against legionellae. Laboratories (7) participated from six countries. Legionellae were determined by culture qPCR methods with comparable detection limits. Systems monitored over ≥10 weeks. For cooling towers (232 samples), there was a significant difference between log mean (GU l(-1) ) (CFU pneumophila (0·71) spp....
Training Infection Control in Europe (TRICE) 2010 identified significant differences within European Countries (EC) the existence of /Hospital Hygiene (IC/HH) courses and their compliance with Improving Patient Safety (IPSE, 2008) recommended Core Competencies. The need to improve official recognition “IC/HH degrees” for healthcare professionals also emerged. TRICE further developed, agreed EIC/HHCC two tiers, published by ECDC March 2013 as a Technical Document.
The Rudolf Schuelke Foundation addresses topics related to hygiene, infection prevention and public health. In this context a panel of scientists from various European countries discussed "The Role Surface Disinfection in Infection Prevention". most important findings conclusions meeting are summarised the present consensus paper.Although relevance surface disinfection is increasingly being accepted, there still number issues which remain controversial. particular, following were addressed:...
Lead exposure remains a public health concern due to its serious adverse effects, such as cognitive and behavioral impairment: children younger than six years of age being the most vulnerable population. In Europe, lead-related economic impacts have not been examined in detail. We estimate annual costs France childhood and, through cost benefit analysis (CBA), aim assess expected social benefits abatement.Monetary were assessed terms avoided national costs. used results from 2008 survey on...
