NTM in perfusion devices. The outbreak of NTM and the subsequent recall of these devices in 2011 failed to make a lasting change to how we manage infection control policies around these devices. The IFUs still say fill with tap water and change the water every 30 days. 👀 #IDSky #clinmicro #IPSky

Happy International Infection Preventionist Day!
The work done by IPs saves lives. It’s not always obvious, and it’s difficult, but it is valuable and essential to safe healthcare.
Appreciating you on this day IPs!
(I made these magnets for my team 😇😘)

Look at these HAI prevention tools developed by AHRQ and made available for free… Who benefits from all these agencies being shut down? Certainly not patients, healthcare workers, hospitals, or “the tax payers”… bacteria and yeast will be happy I guess 🫤🫠🧫 #IDSky #IPSky #EpiSky
