Prevention of Transmission of Acute Respiratory Infection

This annex is added as an extension to PIDAC‘s Routine Practices and Additional Precautions and deals specifically with the surveillance, reporting and specific interventions for prevention and control of droplet-spread acute respiratory infections in health care settings across the continuum of care including, but not limited to, acute care, long-term care, chronic (including mental health) care and home health care.

The infection prevention and control management of acute respiratory infection is detailed in Section II.2.F of Routine Practices and Additional Precautions.
