SESSION OBJECTIVES
• List communicable diseases for which
infection control measures are indicated
• Identify modes of transmission for
communicable diseases
• Identify appropriate infection control
measures for common and/or serious
contagious diseases
• Know the campus and community resources
involved with implementing infection control
measures

WHAT DO STUDENTS NEED TO KNOW?*
*Also parents, staff, media
• Who is at risk for exposure?
• What should students do if they were
exposed?
• What should students do if they have
symptoms?

TRANSMISSION BASICS
•
•
•
•
•
Airborne
Droplet
Contact
Ingestion
Blood and body fluid
18
AIRBORNE TRANSMISSION
• Airborne droplet nuclei
– Small particles <5 μm of evaporated droplet
• Widely dispersed
• Remain suspended in air for long periods
• Indication for N95 respirator
19
TB Online
CDC
CDC
20
DROPLET TRANSMISSION
• Droplets generated primarily by coughing,
sneezing, talking
• Droplets relatively large
– Propelled short distance (< 3 feet)
– Deposited on conjunctiva, nasal mucosa, mouth
– Do not remain suspended in air
• Indication for surgical masking

CONTACT TRANSMISSION
• Direct contact with infected area
• Fomites
• Most common route of health care-associated
infections

CONTROL AND PREVENTION
• Pre-exposure immunization
(for vaccine-preventable diseases)
• Screening
• Hand hygiene
• Food and water safety
• Universal precautions
• Isolation and quarantine
• Post-exposure immunization
• Post-exposure chemoprophylaxis
27
RECOGNIZING AND MANAGING OUTBREAKS

•
•
Disease surveillance
Contact identification and tracing
Pre- and post-exposure prophylaxis
Notification
Public health emergencies

INFECTION CONTROL ISSUES
•
•
•
•
•
Transmission characteristics
Diagnosis
Treatment
Evaluation of the exposed individual
Control measures
• Isolation/exclusion – who, what, how long
• Post-exposure measures
• Environmental measures
29
PERTUSSIS
Manifestations
Catarrhal stage
Cough
{Total duration 6 – 10 weeks}
Paroxysmal stage
Transmission
Droplet
Incubation period
Typically 7 – 10 days (range 6 -21 days)
Diagnostic tests
Culture
PCR
DFA
Treatment
Macrolide antibiotic (azithromycin)
Infectivity
From onset of symptoms* to 2 weeks
after onset of paroxysms
30
PERTUSSIS, continued
Isolate student until first five days antibiotics
completed or until 21 days after onset of
Control measures
symptoms
Isolate symptomatic contacts
Candidates for
Prophylaxis indicated for household and
post-exposure
other close contacts
measures
Monitor for 21 days after last contact
Post-exposure
measures
Macrolide antibiotic (azithromycin)
Update Tdap when indicated, but not
effective as post-exposure measure
Cleaning and
disinfecting
Routine cleaning only
31
MEASLES
Manifestations
Transmission
Fever, followed by cough, coryza,
conjunctivitis and Koplik spots
Erythematous maculopapular rash, starts
on head and spreads downward
Airborne spread, as well as
direct contact with infectious droplets
Incubation period
8 to 12 days
Diagnostic tests
Culture, serology, RT-PCR
Treatment
No specific antiviral therapy
Infectivity
Highly infectious
Contagious from four days before onset of
rash to four days after rash appears
32
MEASLES, continued
Isolate for 4 days after onset of rash (airborne
precautions)
Control measures Isolate symptomatic contacts
Consider excluding asymptomatic contacts
who cannot demonstrate immunity
Candidates for
post-exposure
Anyone who cannot demonstrate immunity
measures
Post-exposure
measures
Post-exposure immunization may be effective
if given within 72 hours of exposure
Cleaning and
disinfecting
Routine cleaning only
33
MRSA
Manifestations
Pustule or boil, commonly at site of visible
skin trauma
Transmission
Contact
Diagnostic tests
Culture and sensitivity
Treatment
Incision and drainage
Empiric antibiotics may be warranted
When possible, obtain specimens for C&S
to guide continued antibiotic choice
34
MRSA, continued
Cover infections
Exclude athletes if wounds cannot be
properly covered
Control measures
Hand hygiene
Clean shared equipment
Do not share personal items
Post-exposure
measures
No specific measures
Cleaning and
disinfecting
Usually routine cleaning sufficient
Focus on surfaces that might come in contact
with uncovered infections
Clean shared equipment
Routine laundry procedures
35
NOROVIRUS
Manifestations
Diarrhea and vomiting
Symptoms last 1 – 14 days
Transmission
Ingestion
Person-to-person (fecal-oral)
Contaminated food or water
Incubation period
12 to 72 hours
Diagnostic tests
PCR assays not commercially available
Treatment
Symptomatic – antiemetics, rehydration
Infectivity
Most contagious during symptoms and
first 3 days of recovery
36
NOROVIRUS, continued
Standard measures for control of diarrhea
Scrupulous hand hygiene
Control measures Exclude infected individuals from food
preparation, health care, child care
Consider isolation for 48 hours
Candidates for
Reinforce hand hygiene to anyone with
post-exposure
potential exposure
measures
Post-exposure
measures
No specific measures available
Cleaning and

Disinfect contaminated surfaces with bleach
solution or other disinfectant
Wash contaminated clothes and linens
