Hello,
Does anyone have any policies or guidelines they would be willing to share on the infection control surrounding cystic fibrosis, including placement of patients with burkholderia cepacia? I am developing a policy and would appreciate any advice.
Thankyou. |

Have you seen the article this month in The Journal of Infection Control, Festini et al, titled Isolation measures for prevention of infection with respiratory pathogens in cystic fibrosis: a systematic review.

Suzanne,
This website doesn't sem to have email addresses displayed any more (or is it just me being dumb?) so unable to send the policy to you. Email me on [email protected] and I'll send you a copy that way.
Cheers

The site doesn't display e mail addresses anymore, this was a deliberate decision to reduce the risk of spam to forum members' e mail addresses.
