The Core Elements are applicable in all hospitals, regardless of size. There are suggestions specific to small and criti

cal access hospitals in Implementation of Antibiotic Stewardship Core Elements at Small and Critical Access Hospitals (12).There is no single template for a program to optimize antibiotic prescribing in hospitals. Implementation of antibiotic stewardship programs requires flexibility due to the complexity of medical decision-making surrounding antibiotic use and the variability in the size and types of care among U.S. hospitals. In some sections, CDC has identified priorities for implementation, based on the experiences of successful stewardship programs and published data. The Core Elements are intended to be an adaptable framework that hospitals can use to guide efforts to improve antibiotic prescribing. The assessment tool that accompanies this document can help hospitals identify gaps to address.

he identification of the first case of pan-‐resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(Brink et al, J Clin Microbiol. 2013;51(1):369-‐72) marks a watershed moment and highlights ourtip of the antibiotic resistance ‘iceberg’ in this country. Multi-‐drug resistant (MDR)-‐bacterial infections, predominantly in Gram-‐negative bacteria such as Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosaand Acinetobacter baumanniiare now commonplace in South African hospitals. Whilst a number of expensive new antibiotics for Gram-‐positive bacterial infections have been manufactured recently (some of which are licenced for usein South Africa), no new antibiotics active against Gram-‐negative infections are expected in the next 10-‐15years. Hence what we have now, needs conserving

Com as informações disponíveis atualmente, sugere-se que a via de transmissão humano a humano do 2019-nCoV seja por gotículas respiratórias ou contato. Qualquer pessoa que esteja em contato próximo (dentro de 1 metro) com alguém com sintomas respiratórios (por exemplo, espirros, tosse, etc.) está sob risco de exposta a gotículas respiratórias potencialmente infectantes. Máscaras médicas são máscaras cirúrgicas ou de procedimento que são planas ou com pregas (algumas são como copos); elas são afixadas na cabeça com tirasa.
