7 Keys of Asepsis
- Knowing what is clean
- Knowing what is contaminated
- Knowing what is sterile
- Keep clean, contaminated, and sterile items separated
- Storage and opening of sterile packages appropriately will help decrease contamination to sterile field and instruments
- Resolve contamination quickly
- Be aware of cross contamination occurrences and their prevention
Chain of infection
- Mode of transmission
- Susceptible host
- Portal of entry
- Reservoir
- Causing agent
- Portal of exit
