Аннотация
Postoperative Hospital acquired infections (HAI) - also called Nosocomial infections occur worldwide and affect both developed and resource-poor countries.
The following three factors are the determinants of any infectious process:
- The infecting organism (in surgical patients, usually bacteria);
- The environment in which the infection takes place (the local response);
- The host defense mechanisms, which deal systemically with the infectious process.
Our study has shown that it is possible to achieve excellent results without air purification systems.
The use of the correct strategy for the prevention of postoperative nosocomial infections, the recommendations and protocols of the World Health Organization reduces the material costs, lethality and material costs of medical facilities for surgical patients.
