Since it was first published in the 1990s, Infection Control in Clinical Practice has become the primary resource for all clinicians needing to prevent and control healthcare associated infections.

This comprehensive guide covers the underpinning principles of microbiology, infection, immunology and epidemiology, then shows how to apply these principles for evidence-based infection prevention and control (IPC) advice and guidance in the clinic. The book has been fully updated in its fourth edition to incorporate the latest research on new and emerging issues.

The clear and concise explanations in this book make it suitable for all clinicians needing to apply IPC principles in their work, including nursing and medical staff, allied health professionals, IPC practitioners and clinical scientists.
