[Surgical and hospital hygiene (author's transl)]. 1977

R Dohrmann

The decades-old rules of surgical asepsis and antisepsis are more valid than ever before. The responsibility for hygiene must be clearly established: in his particular area, the surgeon, and he alone, is responsible. Patients with an increased susceptibility to infection as well as human and personnel inadequacies represent the greatest stumbling blocks in efforts to improve the status of hygiene.
