SummaryInnovation in mobile communication technology has provided novel approaches to the delivery of healthcare and improvements in the speed and quality of routine medical communication. Bacterial contamination of mobile communication devices (MCDs) could be an important issue affecting the implementation of effective infection control measures and might have an impact on efforts to reduce cross-contamination. This review examines recent studies reporting bacterial contamination of MCDs, most demonstrating that 9–25% of MCDs are contaminated with pathogenic bacteria. We examine previously investigated risk factors for MCD contamination in addition to work on surface decontamination of the device. Recommendations to reduce contamination risks include staff education, strict hand hygiene measures, guidelines on device cleaning and consideration of the restrictions regarding use of mobile phone technology in certain high risk areas, for example, operating theatres, intensive care units and burns units. Further work is required to evaluate the benefit of such interventions on MCD contamination and to determine whether a link exists between contamination and subsequent patient infection.

看不懂啊,英语基础忒差了!:'( 但是经常看到医务人员在工作场合随时随地的拿出手机就接打电话!根本就没顾忌那么多啊!

Cell Phones Helping Spread Hospital Superbugs?March 7, 2009
An excerpt by Chris Matyszczyk
Perhaps you, too, have friends who go nowhere without their hand sanitizer. Perhaps you, too, laugh at them beneath your clenched top lip.
However, researchers at Ondokiz Mayis University in Turkey are discovering that germs lurk everywhere. Especially in cell phones belonging to doctors and nurses, according to an Agence France Presse report. In fact, these phones may be a significant source of infections such as MRSA, which seems to have become an increasing danger in hospitals all over the world.
In researching the cell phones and dominant hands of 200 doctors and nurses, the researchers found that 95 percent of the phones were home to at least one bacterium. Nearly 35 percent hosted two. And 11 percent enjoyed three or more bugs of various descriptions.
What is perhaps most stunning is that 1 in 8 were found to harbor the potentially deadly MRSA bug, which is said to be the cause of 60 percent of all hospital infections.
It's something that few people think about, but how often does anyone clean their cell phone? We're all being told relentlessly to wash our hands. Especially if we're employees of the restaurant in which the restroom that carries the notice is housed.
But cell phones sit in fluff-filled pockets, on dirty train tables, in scarcely pristine meeting rooms, on car seats that may have recently been vacated by the bottom of someone not necessarily as anally retentive as ourselves, and then we put them to our fingers, our ears, and our mouths.

也许你也有朋友随身带着手消毒剂,也许你也会笑话他们太认真。然而,法国一家出版物报道,土耳其Ondokiz Mayis大学的研究人员发现,细菌无处不在。尤其是医生和护士的手机上。事实上,这些手机可能是诸如MRSA等病原感染的重要来源,也是全世界医院渐增的危险。在调查这些手机和拥有它们的200个医护人员的手时,研究人员发现95%的手机定植有至少一种细菌,接近35%的手机寄植有两种细菌,11%的手机上有3种或3种以上不同类型的细菌。更令人惊讶的是1/8的手机上发现有潜在致死性的MRSA寄存,所有院内感染的60%是由它引起。很少有人能想到,手机该多长时间清洁一次。我们常常被无情地教导要洗手,如果我们是饭店员工,连洗手间里都有提示。但是手机放在毛茸茸的口袋里,或脏兮兮的车桌上,偶尔在会议桌上,在某些人刚刚抬起屁股的车座上,然后我们把它放在我们的手指中,我们的耳边、嘴边。 我深有体会,有时在查病历时突然手机响了,来不及洗手就接手机了。以前我还套一个塑料袋,但用起来不方便。手机确实是病原感染的重要来源,大家必须都要注意手机的清洁,必要时也要消毒。 个别外科医师甚至把手机带入手术室,看来手机的管理也要纳入院感管理!! 谢谢esuoting的翻译 esuoting 发表于 2009-5-25 21:19 static/image/common/back.gif

谢谢老师的辛勤翻译!我们学习了以后要将手机作为监管的重点之一 感谢老师的分享与翻译!让我们学习有关手机带菌方面知识,手机以后会成为院感监管的对象。
