The Impact of US-Style Infection Control Programs in an Asian Country
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 02 January 2015
Abstract
The impact of US-style infection control programs is global. There are many Asian countries that have translated US-style infection control programs into their own programs, but reports of those efforts are rarely published in English. This article describes the development of infection control in Taiwan and the development of intensive infection surveillance and control programs in a pioneer acute-care medical center that has 3,000 beds. The article also discusses problems that have arisen in translation of US infection control practices.
