Expanding Knowledge

Hospital-acquired infections are infections acquired by hospitalized patients in hospitals, including infections occurring during hospitalization and infections occurring after discharge from hospitals acquired in hospitals, but excluding infections that have begun prior to admission to hospitals or that are already in the incubation period at the time of admission to hospitals. Infections acquired by hospital staff within the hospital are also hospital-acquired infections.

Broadly speaking, the object of hospital infection includes hospitalized patients, hospital staff, outpatient and emergency patients, visitors and family members of patients, etc., these people in the area of the hospital to obtain infectious diseases can be called hospital infection.

But because of the patients, visitors and family members of patients in the hospital for a short period of time, to get infected with many complex factors, often difficult to determine whether the infection is from the hospital, so in fact, the object of hospital infections are mainly hospitalized patients and hospital staff.
