3^rd Edition of Infectious Diseases World Conference 2027

Infections associated with healthcare continue to be a significant patient safety problem in hospitals, clinics, and other healthcare settings. The infections can emerge due to healthcare-related procedures, operations, or invasive devices, possibly complicating health condition, prolonging the period of patients' stay in hospital and healthcare expenditures. This session is going to cover the issues of epidemiology, routes of infection transmission, clinical symptoms, and infection prevention in the context of healthcare-associated infections.

The session is going to cover infections related to surgery, catheter-associated urinary tract infections, ventilator-associated infections, bloodstream infections, and other health complications emerging from being exposed to healthcare. Among possible topics for discussion one can mention such aspects as surveillance system, environmental cleanliness, sterilization, staff training, antibiotic stewardship, and evidence-based infection prevention practices. Researchers can also consider the role of hospital setting, patient characteristics, staffing patterns, and adherence to existing standards in infection occurrence.

Healthcare professionals, infection prevention practitioners, epidemiologists, microbiologists, and hospital administration are invited to share their research on how to reduce healthcare-associated infections. One can discuss quality improvement efforts, outbreak investigation, risk assessment tools, and other measures to improve patient safety.
