背景。疾病控制与预防中心(CDC)是美国疾病预防的主要联邦机构。距离上次发布 CDC 牙科医疗机构感染控制指南已有 10 年了。在这 10 年里,新技术和问题不断出现,疾病预防控制中心 (CDC) 的其他医疗机构感染控制指南也已更新。结果。鉴于这些进展,疾病预防控制中心与感染控制专家合作,修改了针对牙科医疗机构的感染控制建议。审查了与牙科感染控制原则和实践相关的现有指南和已发表的研究。本文提供了背景信息,描述了创建这些指南的过程,并列出了新的建议。临床意义。疾病预防控制中心相信,遵循这些新建议的牙科诊所将加强本已令人钦佩的安全牙科实践记录。患者和提供者都可以放心,可以以安全的方式提供和接受口腔保健。
Background. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, or CDC, is the lead federal agency for disease prevention in the United States. It has been 10 years since CDC infection control guidelines for dental health care settings were last published. During those 10 years, new technologies and issues have emerged, and other CDC infection control guidelines for health care settings have been updated. Results. In light of these developments, CDC collaborated with experts in infection control to revise its infection control recommendations for dental health care settings. Existing guidelines and published research pertinent to dental infection control principles and practices were reviewed. This article provides background information, describes the process used to create these guidelines, and lists the new recommendations. Clinical Implications. CDC believes that dental offices that follow these new recommendations will strengthen an already admirable record of safe dental practice. Patients and providers alike can be assured that oral health care can be delivered and received in a safe manner.
