Summary: The art of medicine becomes science when supported by evidence. The recommended practices of infection prevention are based on scientific and epidemiologic evidence. However,Â{uDBF3}t health care professionals see them as mandates and fail to incorporate them into their routine patient care activities. TheÂ{u3BF2}e goal of this publication is to link the practicesÂ{u0D2F} theÂ{u0CA9}nciples they are based on. The expectation is that understanding ofÂ{u4A25} principles willÂ{u3A21}nge theÂ{u0CA1}ctices from mandates to "should do" in the minds of health care professionals. This will lead to improvement inÂ{u8961}lth care by preventing unintended harm to patients, co-workers and the communities at large. At the same time, the text provides a comprehensive, thorough and up to date information on all aspects of infection prevention in a reader-friendly manner and therefore, will serve as a valuable reference
