دانلود کتاب درسی میکروبیولوژی کاربردی شامل ایمنی کنترل عفونت برای دانشجویان کارشناسی پرستاری، ویرایش دوم

Microbiology is a vast field and it is important for the students to understand the subject from nursing perspective. The direct application of microbiology in healthcare settings makes it necessary to be understood as a basic necessity. Principles of microbiology are pillars of the nursing care practice. This book is an attempt to present the vast knowledge of microbiology in a simple and easy-to-understand language for degree course and post-basic students in the field of nursing. The book has been written keeping in view the revised syllabus recommended by the Indian Nursing Council. Not even a single topic is excluded as each topic has its unique importance. I have tried to provide all the basic concepts of microbiology that are needed by a nurse, while working in a hospital. The contents are expressed in lucid language accompanied by short and long answers. Nursing interventions given in the chapters make this book more useful to nursing students. MCQs given at the end of each chapter will help students to assess their grasp on the specific topic. “Facteria” provided in each chapter, serves as a way of imparting extra knowledge related to the topic. The texts are supplemented by tables, diagrams and figures. It makes a chapter easy to be apprehended by a reader. The book contains 42 chapters divided into two sections. Section A deals with Applied Microbiology along with basic concepts and Section B contains Infection Control including Safety in a Healthcare Setting. y SECTION A: Applied Microbiology will enable students to acquire understanding of fundamentals of Microbiology, compare and contrast different microbes and comprehend the means of transmission and control of spread by various microorganisms. It will also provide opportunities for practicing infection control measures in hospital and community settings. The section comprises 4 units.
ƒ Unit I : Introduction
ƒ Unit II : General Characteristics of Microbes
ƒ Unit III : Pathogenic Organisms
ƒ Unit IV : Immunity
y SECTION B: Infection Control and Safety will help students to acquire knowledge and develop competencies required for fundamental patient safety and infection control in delivering patient care. It also focuses on identifying patient safety indicators, preventing and managing hospital-acquired infections, and in the following universal precautions. The section
