They called ESBL

Once again I have a sensitive topic that I write in my blog today.  I feel hesitate in the first place but since  I was thinking that maybe it could help and even give information to some pregnant women. Working in care industry is  advantage for you as a person because you learn more about medicine and some other related situation. But risk factor cannot be avoided like for instance the infection from the patience that possible spread away.

The good thing that I learned here that people care their health. They are active to have vaccine for both kind of disease( that could spread away )named it hepatitis,tbc,and the rest that could possible to stop by vaccine. One big reason why foreign people not afraid to travel in risk country like Africa and some part in South Asia.They make sure that they are protected against the bad bacteria that could killed them under their journey.

Today's concern of mine was about this ESBL(Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamase). This kind of bacteria spread away in hospitals and nursing home. A feeling of panic was what I've experienced this morning. We have 1 patient which is recently carrier of a disease that I mentioned above. I got worried as of course for my "baby". I right away pick up the phone and asked advise from my midwife if I need to stay away the patient for the safe of my baby. But she said it¨s not a problem and not dangerous for "fetus".

Thankful I was because this kind of bacteria cannot spread through host or we say by air. This could be travel through contact by hands. One thing I need to do is follow the hygiene routine (by washing hands and using gloves etc.). I was lightened and could breath back!
