Hospital Sepsis - A Communicable Disease
About this film
Wow! People sneezing in slow-mo etc. Visualizes means by which infection, particularly staphylococcal, is introduced, spread and carried in a hospital, and suggests general principles for control. Establishes the concept that hospital sepsis is a disease and unless care is used it can spread throughout an entire hospital infecting other patients. Presents a controlled experiment in which a patient with a ten-year history of boils enters the hospital and through a series of tests potential paths of infection from her to other patients are traced. Steps among all hospital personnel to combat its spread are stressed. This film can be purchased on DVD and higher quality versions of the film can be purchased for stock footage purposes.
