CDC Updates Recommendations for Protecting Clinicians From Influenza
JAMA, 11/04/09
Kuehn BM – As new data about influenza transmission and concerns about potential shortages of some protective equipment have emerged, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has updated its guideline to help protect clinicians from infection with the 2009 influenza A(H1N1) virus. Among the changes are more detailed strategies for reducing clinician exposure to influenza in hospitals, a reduction in the amount of time clinicians are advised to wait to return to work after an influenzalike illness, and strategies for stretching the supply of N95 respirators in case of shortages.
