Statement of the Problem: Very few publications provide
sound scientific data used to determine which components are
essential for infection prevention and control (IPC) programs in
terms of effectiveness in reducing the risk of infection. In recent
years, a range of regional best practice or policy principles have
been developed that address what could be considered as core
components of IPC programs. However there remains a major
gap in relation to the availability of international best practice
principles for core components of IPC programs.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to show why patients
still catch hospital infections despite IPC programs. A better
understanding of a variety of theories is needed that could explain
the physiopathology of diverse diseases described in the medical
past history, which are usually disregarded clinically today. A
broader view seems to show the necessity of seeing the patient
as a whole; not only focusing on the disease in the prevention of
these hospital infections.
Methodology: A review of these theories such as those presented
by Hippocrates (Natural forces within us are the true healers of
disease), as well as others from oriental medicine, which explain
that diseases originate from three factors: external (exposure to
cold, heat, humidity, wind and dryness), internal (emotional) and
dietary.
Findings: Having a broader view of the patient as a whole (Yin,
Yang, Qi, blood energy and heat retention), we can understand
better the formation of hospital infection which is a systemic
energy reaction of our body undergoing normal hospital treatment.
Conclusion: To understand better why a patient is still catching
hospital infections, despite these IPC programs, we need to
broaden our view observing all emotional, environmental and
dietary factors, as well as studying the patient’s energy situation at
themoment of admittance identifying the risk of hospital infection.
