| Why you chose this article and/or how it relates to the clinical issue of interest (include a brief explanation of the ethics of research related to your clinical issue of interest) | This article relates to the selected issue of interest (infection control and patient safety) since it helps understand the impact that the infection prevention and control measures that were used for Covid-19 had on other hospital-acquired infections.
The research was reviewed and approved by the institution’s review board. It also respected human subjects by ensuring autonomy, privacy, and respect for human dignity. |
I chose this article to create an understanding of the clinical issue of infection from the perspective of the infection control prevention professionals themselves, the healthcare workers.
The article relates to the clinical infection control issue since understanding healthcare workers’ perceptions of infection control would help improve the current infection prevention and control practices. The autonomy and privacy of the participants were maintained. |
The major reason for selecting this article is because it focuses on infection prevention in the operating room, one of the major areas of infection. Infections in this environment pose a major threat to patient safety.
Research ethics was maintained through respect for the human dignity of the study participants.
