Infection control is the discipline concerned with preventing nosocomial or healthcare-associated infection, a practical (rather than academic) sub-discipline of epidemiology. It is an essential, though often underrecognized and undersupported, part of the infrastructure of health care. Infection control and hospital epidemiology are akin to public health practice, practiced within the confines of a particular health-care delivery system rather than directed at society as a whole. Anti-infective agents include antibiotics, antibacterials, antifungals, antivirals and antiprotozoals.[1]
Infection control addresses factors related to the spread of infections within the healthcare setting (whether patient-to-patient, from patients to staff and from staff to patients, or among-staff), including prevention (via hand hygiene/hand washing, cleaning/disinfection/sterilization, vaccination, surveillance), monitoring/investigation of demonstrated or suspected spread of infection within a particular health-care setting (surveillance and outbreak investigation), and management (interruption of outbreaks). It is on this basis that the common title being adopted within health care is "infection prevention and control." (got from google
Answer:
The correct answer is b polar covalent
Explanation:
When two atoms joined by covalent bond has difference in their electronegativities at that time polarity arise.
When the electronegativity difference is low such as 1.3 then the polar bond formed by the two atoms are called polar covalent bond.For example H2O
on the other hand polar bond formed by two atoms having high difference in their electronegativities is called ionic bond.For example NaCl.
Carbon dioxide (CO2)
in the process of respiration, oxygen and glucose react to form carbon dioxide and water.
Answer:
A. Fossils of organisms that lived in warm climates have been found in arctic environments.
Explanation:
One of the logic used by Geologists to justify plate movement over a region of space is that the fossils of organisms that lived in warm climates have been found in arctic environments.
- this is as a result of plate tectonics.
- organisms that are well adapted to warm climates in times past have their relics preserved as fossils.
- their fossils are no found today around the arctic environment which are cold
- this suggests that the plate must have drifted or moved
