| What are the disinfection methods for infectious diseases? |
Pathogens, which cut off the route of transmission and prevent and control the occurrence of infection. Its purpose:
(1) Preventing the spread of pathogens into society and causing epidemics.
(2) Prevent the patient from being infected by other pathogens, complications, and cross infection.
(3) It also protects medical staff from immune infections.
Disinfection alone is not enough to achieve the above objectives. It is necessary to carry out the necessary isolation measures and aseptic operations at work in order to achieve the effect of controlling infection. The effects of disinfection are different for infectious diseases caused by different transmission mechanisms. Infectious diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, the pathogens are excreted with excrement or vomit, and the scope of pollution is relatively limited. If the disinfection can be carried out in a timely and normal manner, the transmission route is cut off, and the effect of interrupting the transmission is better. Respiratory infectious diseases, pathogens are discharged with breathing, coughing, sneezing, and then spread by droplets and dust. The scope of pollution is not accurate. It is difficult to carry out disinfection. Space separation must be taken at the same time to interrupt the infection. Insect-borne diseases take methods such as killing insects and killing rats.
