The Manual of Infection Prevention and Control is a practical, accessible, and authoritative guide that delivers evidence-based guidance for infection prevention and control across all healthcare settings. Its twelve comprehensive chapters cover key areas including triage and isolation, hand hygiene and environmental cleaning, the use of personal protective equipment, safe injection and aseptic practices, decontamination of medical devices, and the prevention and control of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs). This manual is an indispensable resource for all professionals working to prevent and control healthcare-associated infections, the spread of infectious diseases, and MDROs.

All chapters have been fully updated, with new sections added on ventilation, water safety, and antimicrobial stewardship to ensure the guidance remains current, relevant, and authoritative.
