Abstract

Aim: Until now, there have been no standardized guidelines for the content of infection control protocols. The aim of this research project is therefore to develop a standardized model for the evaluation and analysis of three dimensions: setting, protection targets, and precautions. Subject and methods: Events are part of social life and, as such, have a direct or indirect impact on the physical, mental, and social health of all involved groups (employees, artists, subcontractors, visitors, etc.). Valid infection control protocols for events must reduce the risk of infection in general, not only in a pandemic. A range of handouts and recommendations are available, mostly focusing on the visitors.For the present study, a total of 46 infection control protocols for events, hosted in the period between 2020 and 2021 in Germany, were analyzed from June to December 2021. The infection control protocols provide what was needed to realize events. Results: For the first time, a standardized model, called the Hygieia model, is presented for the evaluation and analysis of three dimensions: setting, protection targets of the involved groups, and precautions. Taking all three dimensions into account enables the assessment of existing pandemic safety protocols as well as the development of valid protocols in terms of effectiveness and efficiency. Conclusion: The Hygieia model can be used for risk assessment of events from conferences to concerts, especially for infection prevention under pandemic conditions.

  • Established cleaning and sanitation protocols from food industries can serve as a foundation for developing hygiene standards in 3D food printing.

    “These established protocols can serve as a foundation for developing hygiene standards in emerging technologies like 3D food printing, where similar principles of cleaning, sanitization, and validation can be adapted to ensure food safety and quality [168,169].”

    From Towards the development of foods 3D printer: Trends and technologies for foods printing (2024) · cites this paper as [168]

    The Abstract (Subject and methods) and Introduction (Valid infection control protocols; page unavailable) concern infection control at events, not established cleaning and sanitation protocols in the food industry. Searches for 3D food printing, food-industry hygiene standards, and adaptation of cleaning and validation principles found no passage addressing the attributed claim. (LLM, conf=0.76)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
