多重耐药细菌对公共卫生构成日益严峻的挑战。多药耐药细菌和其他传染性病原体患者的隔离预防措施可能与不良反应有关。虽然很少有人会质疑这种做法在防止传染性感染传播方面的必要性，但患者对隔离的看法表明，强加的环境对他们的身体、社会和情感需求造成了障碍。本文回顾了文献，以发现任何可靠的证据，支持在医疗环境中孤立的经历对患者健康产生不利影响的断言。数据库检索确定了1990年至2017年间发表的25篇相关论文。一些研究声称已经发现了病人的负面经历和孤立之间的联系。
Multi-resistant bacteria pose an increasing and significant challenge to public health. Isolation precautions in patients with multi-drug-resistant bacteria and other communicable infectious agents can be associated with adverse effects. Although few would dispute the need for such practices in preventing the spread of transmissible infections, patients' perspectives of isolation suggest that the imposed environment creates barriers to their physical, social and emotional needs. This article reviews the literature to uncover any reliable evidence supporting the assertion that the experience of isolation in healthcare settings impacts adversely on patient wellbeing. Database searches identified 25 relevant papers published between 1990 and 2017. A number of studies claimed to have uncovered an association between negative patient experiences and isolation.
