Мета роботи полягала в оцінці актуальності додаткового знезараження води в лікарнях як одного з шляхів профілактики нозокоміальних інфекцій.
Аналіз даних літератури дозволив підтвердити взаємозв’язок між контамінацією водними хвороботворними мікроорганізмами
і нозокоміальними інфекціями і обґрунтувати важливий невикористаний потенціал щодо зменшення ризику виникнення небезпечних патологій шляхом профілактичних заходів. Всебічна мультибар'єрна стратегія протидії і контролю якості питної води дозволить
забезпечити безпеку пацієнтів і позитивний економічний ефект.
Problem statement. Epidemiological value the risk factors for nosocomial infections has shown a close connection between microbial
contamination of drinking water and the emergence of these infectious nosoforms. In this chain, it is necessary to further disinfect the water
supply to the hospital.
Task statement. The goal has based by evaluating actuality extra disinfection the water in the Hospitals like one of the additional way in
prevention nosocomial infection.
Materials and methods of research. Bibliometric, analytical.
Presenting main material. The analysis of the literature data shows that strategies for control and prevention of contamination with
pathogens in hospital’s water supply systems should be based on an integrated approach, which provides the following. It is necessary to
create a new strategy in educational programs for all water supply specialists. Hospital water should be regarded as an important reservoir of
infection. Prevention of formation and development of biofilms in water supply systems is the basis for preventing water contamination by
pathogenic microorganisms. Strategies to combat the formation of biofilms should include careful implementation of all procedures. Chlorine
dioxide is more effective than just chlorine in removing existing and counteracting the formation of new biofilms. Microbiological quality
control the hospital's water and water supply system is a key procedure, as it provides information on the state of water pollution by various
aquatic pathogens and to assess the effectiveness of control measures.
Conclusions. The presence of an association between waterborne pathogens and nosocomial infections suggests the need to additional
water disinfection in hospitals.
