Osteomyelitis Global Clinical Market Research Report, Analysis, Opportunities, Forecast, Revenue, Trends, Value : Ken Research

• Since osteomyelitis is mainly an infection, it can easily flourish around
open wounds and recently treated areas around bones. New technologies
for the prevention of healthcare associated infections are increasingly
being developed and marketed to healthcare centers worldwide. This
comes due to the realization of the fact that while there is substantial
promise in simulated test environments, decreasing infections in the
clinical setting has not been well established. There are a number of
factors that raise concern in this respect, the most common ones being
cross transmission in the hospital environment arising from contamination
of hospital surfaces, contamination of medical devices and hands or
clothes of medical personnel. Studies too show the alarming situation as
more than one-third of hospital acquired infections are caused by
contamination of medical workers’ hands. A patient admitted to a hospital
room in which the previous occupant had methicillin-resistant
Staphylococcus aureus has a significantly increased risk of acquiring the
pathogens.
