Contents the complete separation from others of a person suffering from contagious or infectious disease; quarantine. isolation refers to various measures taken to prevent contagious diseases from being spread from a patient to other patients, health care workers, and visitors, or from others to a particular patient.
Reverse isolation is a method to prevent a patient in a compromised health situation from being contaminated by other people or objects. Absolute reverse isolation is rarely necessary and requires elaborate specialized equipment. Protective modified reverse isolation is less restrictive but is not prolonged needlessly because the patient usually feels lonely and sensorially deprived. Infectious control The placement of an immunocompromised person in a specialized room or unit that attempts to minimize exposure to pathogens. See Personal protection garment.

Define Severe Pre-eclampsia

Define Eclampsia

This is used for diseases in which there is increased susceptibility to infection such as patients with neutropenia, on anti-cancer chemotherapy, and severely immunocompromized patients. The amount of protection required varies with the type of patient. Essentially, such patients should be isolated with a minimum of dust, dirt, and wet areas. Hands must be washed or disinfected before entering the room. Sterile gloves, gown or apron, and masks should be worn and discarded after attending patient. Maximum protection, including sterile linen, food and other supplies, may be required for immunosuppressed patients, but is not necessary for patients with eczema and burns. Maximum protective isolation requires the use of a ventilated room or positive pressure isolator. Mouth and other orifices should be decontaminated, gut and skin may also have to be decontaminated. Staff should wear sterile protective clothing. If visitors are admitted to the isolation room, they should be given detailed instructions and if suffering from any infection, they should be excluded.

This includes forms of care that involve use of equipment common to all patients at the facility, or that involve transporting the patient to an area of the facility common to all patients.
