Bakgrund: Vårdboende har setts vara en reservoar för resistenta bakterier, och prevention är av stor vikt, då äldre har ökad risk att drabbas. Sjuksköterskans kunskaper om hur dessa bakteriers sprids, kan utgöra grunden för hur arbetet läggs upp. Syfte: Syftet med denna studie var att beskriva prevention mot spridning av resistenta bakterier på särskilt vårdboende. Metod: Studien genomfördes som en allmän litteraturstudie. Resultat: Införandet av handhygienprodukter, skyddshandskar, skyddsrockar, screening och städrutiner var effektiva preventionsmetoder.

Trots att stor kunskap finns vad det gäller riskfaktorer, prevention, bedömning och vård fortsätter prevalensen av trycksår att stiga oroväckande. Trycksår fortsätter att förbli ett betydande hälsoproblem och en signifikant ekonomisk belastning för sjukvården runt om i världen. Syftet med litteraturstudien var att ur ett omvårdnadsperspektiv belysa hur uppkomsten av trycksår kan förebyggas. I studien framkom att ett av de viktigaste aspekterna av trycksårsprevention är att en korrekt riskbedömning av trycksår görs så att förebyggande åtgärder kan sättas in tidigt till de patienter som är i behov av det. Det finns en rad olika bedömningsinstrument, men de flesta av dem har inte fått sin validitet beprövad i någon undersökning, och utav de som har prövats visar ingen på en tillräckligt hög tillförlitlighet.
