Evidence-based Intraoperative Infection Control Measures Plus Feedback Are Associated with Attenuation of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 Detection in Operating Rooms
British Journal of Anaesthesia(2022)
Abstract
Editor—A recent review in the British Journal of Anaesthesia described the impact of optimised, basic intraoperative infection control measures.1 Feedback is a critical implementation feature for prevention of bacterial transmission and associated surgical site infections,2,3 but the importance of feedback for viral pathogens is unknown. We have observed a low rate of Staphylococcus aureus [0% (0/108)] and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) transmission [1% (1/108)] after implementation of recommended anaesthesia work area infection control measures.
