Tuberculosis Isolation Measures

There is an infectious disease area in the hospital where outsiders are not allowed to enter. This infectious disease area is full of patients with infectious diseases. The reason for preventing outsiders from entering is that some family members may be infected. Infectious diseases are generally highly infectious. If not treated properly, they will also cause other complications. Especially for tuberculosis patients, the possibility of developing complications is relatively high. So what are the isolation measures for tuberculosis?

1. It is best to give the patient a room with good air circulation and plenty of sunlight. If conditions do not permit, the patient can sleep in a single bed and always open windows for ventilation.

2. Patients' bedding should be frequently exposed to sunlight for disinfection , and the room should be thoroughly disinfected after the patient recovers. You can light the moxa rolls or put 1 to 2 spoons of rice and vinegar on the stove for steaming per cubic meter of space, and then spray the space and the ground with 3% bleaching powder supernatant or 3% Lysol, and close the doors and windows for 1-2 hours.

3. Patients should reduce contact with others and avoid going to public places.

4. The patient's supplies, eating utensils , sputum, and vomitus must be disinfected. Pay special attention to the patient's sputum, which should be spit onto paper or into a spittoon and then burned or disinfected before being poured away.

5. The best way to isolate tuberculosis patients is to be hospitalized and isolated in a specialized tuberculosis hospital , which reduces the chance of infection to family members and other people, which is beneficial to the family and society.
