The challenge of preventing and containing outbreaks of multidrug-resistant organisms and Candida auris during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic: report of a carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii outbreak and a systematic review of the literature

Reto Thoma et al.

Summary: During the COVID-19 pandemic, hospitals have experienced outbreaks of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDRO), mainly caused by CRAB and C. auris. Inadequate adherence to personal protective equipment/hand hygiene, PPE shortage, and high antibiotic use were the most commonly reported potentially modifiable factors contributing to these outbreaks.

Antimicrobial Stewardship in the Covid-19 Pandemic

Sergio Venturini et al.

Summary: During the COVID-19 pandemic, the implementation and maintenance of an antimicrobial stewardship protocol in an 800-bed hospital network in northern Italy achieved low rates of multidrug-resistant microorganisms and reduced antimicrobial use. Consultation with infectious diseases specialists was crucial to the success of this protocol.

Summary: The study in Victoria, Australia demonstrated the value of a centralized CPE control program in increasing case ascertainment, resolving risk factors, and identifying local transmission through prospective genomic and epidemiological surveillance. The methodologies used in the study are transferable to low-prevalence settings and MROs globally.

Outbreak of NDM-1-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in the intensive care unit during the COVID-19 pandemic: Another nightmare

Rishma Amarsy et al.

Summary: An outbreak of Klebsiella pneumoniae producing the carbapenemase NDM-1 occurred in the ICU during the last COVID-19 wave, with 12 patients testing positive. While 7 were asymptomatic, 5 developed infections. The clonal origin of the strains was confirmed through resistome and in silico multilocus sequence typing, with a possible environmental reservoir identified as a contributing factor alongside difficulties in observing optimal bio-cleaning procedures due to workload and exhaustion.

Summary: This study investigated the psychological health of Jordanian health-care workers during the COVID-19 pandemic, revealing high levels of fear, depression, anxiety, and stress among the participants. Factors associated with psychological distress included gender, marital status, age, and clinical experience. Participants primarily relied on support from their families.

MDRO transmission in acute hospitals during the COVID-19 pandemic

Louisa Sun Jin et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has led to necessary modifications in infection control policies and practices in acute healthcare facilities globally, resulting in both outbreaks and decreases in MDRO rates. It is crucial to consider the potential collateral effects of changes in IPC and ASP practices while implementing preventive measures for COVID-19. Disruption caused to IPC and ASP practices during the pandemic may paradoxically lead to an increase in MDRO transmission.

Evolving epidemiology of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales: one hospital's infection prevention and control response over nine years

M. Foley et al.

Summary: This study assessed the evolution of infection prevention and control measures in a tertiary acute care hospital with predominantly multi-bedded patient accommodation as cases of CPE increased. Despite considerable efforts by the IPCT, the number of CPE cases is increasing year-on-year, with more outbreaks being reported in later years.

Knowledge of infection prevention and control among healthcare workers and factors influencing compliance: a systematic review

Saad Alhumaid et al.

Summary: Overall, healthcare workers' knowledge of IPC appears to be adequate, good, and/or high, especially concerning standard precautions, hand hygiene, and care pertaining to urinary catheters. Acceptable levels of knowledge were also detected in regards to IPC measures for specific diseases including TB, MRSA, MERS-CoV, COVID-19, and Ebola. Gaps were identified in several healthcare workers' knowledge concerning occupational vaccinations, the modes of transmission of infectious diseases, and the risk of infection from needle stick and sharps injuries. Recommendations for improving adherence to IPC guidelines are discussed in the review.

Worries and concerns among healthcare workers during the coronavirus 2019 pandemic: A web-based cross-sectional survey

Yuki Sahashi et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the worries and concerns of healthcare workers (HCWs) regarding the COVID-19 pandemic. The results showed that both frontline and non-frontline HCWs expressed comparable concerns about the pandemic, but frontline HCWs were more inclined to avoid contact with families and friends and felt unable to evade their professional duty during the pandemic. Effective mental health protection strategies are needed for HCWs.
