Adopting proper infection control measures and reducing the incidence of infection in hospitals, especially in ICUs, has become a necessity since the COVID-19 pandemic has burdened the healthcare sector globally. Different methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) prevention methods used in hospitals and other healthcare facilities have led to various combinations of interventions being used for reducing HAI. Improving hand hygiene, patient contact precautions, active surveillance and environmental cleaning are some prevention methods used for reducing infection incidents in hospitals.

Patients undergoing chemotherapy, elderly patients, newborns, and patients with multiple medical comorbidities are vulnerable to HAI. The patients in the ICUs, on ventilator support, undergoing surgery and having indwelling devices such as urinary catheters, vascular access devices, endotracheal tubes, tracheostomies, enteral feeding tubes are susceptible to hospital-acquired infections. HAIs prevention and the accurate recognition using reliable data along with the integration of advanced technology are expected to help the healthcare sector contain hospital-acquired infections.

Traditional cleaning methods are ineffective for cleaning and bacterial control. Because of technological advancements, new approaches such as disinfectants, steam, automated dispersal systems, and antimicrobial surfaces are replacing traditional ways. In recent years, various technologies aimed at reducing the risk of HAIs have evolved. These techniques can completely revolutionize patient care. To inhibit pathogen spread, several emerging methods involve environmental purification.

New disinfectants and delivery technologies, no-touch devices, and antimicrobial surfaces, are being adopted by hospitals. For instance, in January 2021, Joe DiMaggio Children's Hospital in the U.S. began piloting technology from intelligent observation. The technology alternative uses near-field magnetic induction (NFMI) technology. It verifies if clinicians are washing or sanitizing their hands for proper amount of time at scheduled time. NFMI has high accuracy and precision than previous technologies that rely upon radio-frequency identification (RFID) wireless technology.

Some Significant Market Developments Considered in the Report:

COVID-19 Impact on the Global Hospital-acquired Infections (HAI) Market

COVID-19 patients are more vulnerable to HAIs as they have to stay in hospitals for a long period. These patients are likely to get infected with HAI as they are prescribed antibiotics and require machines for treatment. Exposure to devices and antimicrobials increases the risk of complications for patients. Keeping nosocomial infections to a minimum in hospitals is a challenging but critical responsibility for healthcare providers. The fight against COVID-19 will assist in reducing HAIs and in controlling HAI infections in the future. It will help the healthcare sector to implement necessary control measures and prepare for untoward instances of disease spread.
