[Prevention of infection and hygiene in the hospital and in medical practice]. 1986

W Steuer

This paper describes the obligation of the clinical staff and the practice staff to observe the directions for detection, prevention and control of clinical infections as well as the prescriptions for the prevention of accidents and possibly existing governmental laws. These directions are legally binding as some type of DIN standard for hospital hygiene. Undoubtedly these directions and their annexes are of considerable importance for the daily work in a hospital or practice. This is illustrated by some examples.
