Nosocomial infections pause a challenge in treating various kinds of infections, like upper respiratory tract infections in hospital settings. Nosocomial infections are\u00a0infections that patients acquire while receiving treatment for a medical or surgical\u00a0condition. Effective prevention and management of nosocomial infections is in\u00a0demand to ensure rendering the quality care to the patients admitted in hospital\u00a0settings. It\u2019s applicable to primary, secondary and tertiary level of healthcare delivery

An article published in \u2018The Lancet\u2019 shows the importance Infection Control System.\u00a0\u2018Initiation of a new infection control system for the COVID-19 outbreak\u2019\u00a0by Xuejiao Chen , Junzhang Tian, Guanming Li, Guowei Li<\/p>\n
In their study, they found that the Infection Control System ensured immediate\u00a0prevention against nosocomial infection in negative pressure isolation wards which\u00a0offered creative assistance to combat the COVID-19 outbreak. Negative pressure\u00a0isolation wards, generally the most dangerous area in the hospital for airborne\u00a0diseases, are where all the confirmed cases receive medical care as a standard
\npractice.<\/p>\n
Infection control system is a data mining tool that is on constant vigilance again\u00a0outbreak of hospital acquired infections and indiscriminate antibiotic usage.<\/p>\n
YASASII Infection Control System has the capability to identify the contagion and\u00a0possible source of transmission by tracing all staff members and patients who came\u00a0in contact with the host.<\/p>\n
Key Features
\n\uf0b7 Data is sourced automatically and analysed without human intervention.
\n\uf0b7 Alerts the hospital authorities if an outbreak is suspected.
\n\uf0b7 Tracks patient's journey and significantly reduces super bugs, Methicillin-\u00a0Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) \u2013 type of Staphylococcus bacteria\u00a0that is resistant to certain antibiotics and may be acquired during\u00a0hospitalization.
\n\uf0b7 Monitors the usage of antibiotics<\/p>\n
Key Benefits
\n\uf0b7 The hospital can formulate its antibiotic policy by analysing the antibiograms
\n\uf0b7 Helps in further research and analysis of the outbreak.
\n\uf0b7 Reduces and prevents antibiotic abuse.
\n\uf0b7 Increases antibiotic sensitivity and reduces antibiotic resistance.<\/p>\n
Implementation of Infection Control System might be a promising endeavour for
