While studies in developed countries show AMS's effectiveness in reducing AMR and HCAIs, its impact in African countries, given differing socioeconomics, remains unclear.Objectives: To review the impact of AMS on HCAIs, antibiotic prescriptions, cost of antimicrobial procurement, and compliance with diagnostic measures for detecting resistant HCAIs in African countries.Methods: Two reviewers (S.S. and U.C.) searched databases like CINAHL, Medline, and PubMed for studies on AMS interventions in African countries, focussing on their impact on healthcare-associated infections (HCAIs) and antibiotic prescriptions. We excluded studies on outpatients, children, or those not in English and conducted a meta-analysis using data collected from changes in HCAIs before and after intervention using a random-effects model.Results: The search identified 1153 studies, of which 14 were included in the review, while four eligible studies were included in the meta-analysis. Thirteen of the 14 studies were designed using pre- and post-study methods, and one study employed a case-control method. AMS interventions effectively reduce antibiotic consumption, the cost of antibiotic procurement, and improve diagnostic measures for the detection of resistant microorganisms. The forest plot suggested a 34% reduction in HCAIs.Conclusions: In Africa, AMS interventions, whether combined or single, reduce HCAIs and antibiotic prescriptions in healthcare settings. Surgical antibiotic prophylaxis lowers HCAIs in hospitals by one-third. However, findings are cautiously generalised due to the varied quality of studies and the limited number of African countries involved.","PeriodicalId":16094,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Infection Prevention","volume":"27 1","pages":"3-16"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2026-01-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12779907/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145952310","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Quantitative and mixed-methods studies on teaching, learning, and technological approaches to Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) in undergraduate health science curricula were included.

Most of the studies 11 (55%) reported improved knowledge, practice, attitudes, and confidence in IPC after implementation of technological approaches. The most reported technological approaches were didactic instruction 12 (65%) followed by virtual simulation.Discussion: There is considerable variation in the scope, content, and delivery methods for IPC in undergraduate programs. The use of traditional face-to-face teaching methods remains widespread despite its lack of interactive or practical aspects. It is important to incorporate technological methods that promote experiential learning in IPC and to develop standardized curricula for IPC at national, regional, and international levels.","PeriodicalId":16094,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Infection Prevention","volume":" ","pages":"17571774251397197"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12634401/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145587897","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Statistical analysis was performed using the Open Epi system. All clean and clean-contaminated surgeries meeting SAP criteria were included; contaminated and dirty surgeries were excluded.Results: The intervention significantly improved compliance with SAP guidelines. Appropriate antibiotic duration increased from 17% to 50%, and correct timing improved from 42% to 87%, both with a statistically significant p-value of 0.0001.Conclusions: The audit and feedback intervention significantly enhanced compliance with SAP guidelines, particularly in timing and duration, contributing to reduced surgical site infections and costs.

Data was entered in Microsoft Excel, cleaned, and exported to STATA version 14 for analysis.Results: One hundred sixty (55.2%) clinical students had sustained a sharp injury in their clinical practice, with a self-reported prevalence of 46.6% in the last year. A significant proportion of these students, 93 (68.9%), experienced multiple sharp injuries. The common cause and site of injury were solid needles (72; 45%) and fingers (83.1%), respectively. Most students, 197 (67.9%), reported ward procedures not being supervised, and 124 (42%) students worked on ≥ 15 patients daily.

This change reflects both statistical and clinical significance in reducing transmission risk.Conclusions: The intervention had a positive impact on time to TBPs initiation.

Microbe hunters is an escape-room style simulation that creates a more immersive educational experience. The simulation tasked participants with identifying an outbreak organism, completing the chain of infection, and recommending appropriate transmission-based precautions, PPE, and terminal cleaning. The activity concluded with team presentations and a structured debrief. A qualitative evaluation was conducted to assess learning experiences. Participants reported high levels of engagement, enjoyment, and improved understanding of IPC principles. They valued the hands-on problem-solving, teamwork, and realistic scenario design. The experience promoted critical thinking and practical application of knowledge. Microbe Hunters demonstrated that simulation-based, game-style learning is an effective and enjoyable method for IPC education. Grounded in experiential and constructivist learning theories, the approach supports active engagement and knowledge construction.

Several initiatives have been studied to reduce surface contamination; however, there is lack of work investigating emerging technologies such as 3D gestural human-computer interaction (HCI).Aim/objective: This study investigates a touchless 3D gestural display and traditional HCI to quantify the differences in surface contamination.Methods: A between-subjects experimental study was performed to study the spread of surface contamination in a simulated primary care clinic. Participants (N = 30) wore gloves with a blacklight-sensitive powder that would identify what surfaces were contaminated. The number of surfaces of contamination was collected for all participants as well as overall process times.Findings/results: The findings showed that participants who used gestural technology spread contamination to significantly less surfaces that the traditional HCI group (p < .05). However, the gestural group took a significantly longer time to complete the process than the HCI group (p < .05).Discussion: The implementation of 3D gestural HCI has the opportunity to reduce surface contamination and potentially reduce the risk of HAIs. Because the process was found to take longer with the 3D gestural technology, this technology could affect overall healthcare processes. Future work should investigate how the technology should be developed for use in healthcare systems as well as explore other high-risk areas in healthcare.","PeriodicalId":16094,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Infection Prevention","volume":" ","pages":"17571774251394887"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12588962/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145481835","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
