Description
Moustapha Ramadan and co-authors audit infection prevention programs in Egyptian university hospitals in a 2026 study. Hospital-acquired infections are a global burden, and world guidelines give facilities a standard frame to build and grade their defenses.
Twenty-six facilities with programs running at least five years, covering over eleven thousand beds, were scored with the World Health Organization assessment tool. No facility rated inadequate, and about half reached the advanced level. Written guidelines scored highest of all core parts, while combined multimodal strategies scored lowest, just behind training and education. The authors conclude the programs stand on solid ground but need stronger teaching and bundled change tactics.
