Stagnant water threat - clarification:
This article was originally published in Clinica
Executive Summary
Attorneys at law representing the US Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology (APIC) have asked Clinica to point out that survey data reported in Clinica No 961, p 11 on the use and knowledge of water baths in hospital operating rooms was neither sanctioned nor approved by APIC. Hinckley, Allen & Snyder (Boston, Massachusetts) says that the survey was not an APIC-approved activity, was selective, canvassed non-APIC members for their views and purported wrongly to represent the views of APIC members.
