New Delhi: NU Hospitals, a leading provider of nephrology and urology care, has announced the elimination of Hepatitis C virus (HCV) transmission among maintenance hemodialysis patients.
The hospital attributes this remarkable achievement to its partnership with MedLern, a digital training platform that ensured comprehensive adherence to infection control protocols.
A clinical audit highlighted that the hospital successfully shifted from high-risk scenarios to a zero-infection environment, thanks to evidence-based protocols and rigorous staff training supported by MedLern’s innovative digital solutions.
The hospital’s zero-infection protocol included advanced measures such as real-time hand hygiene monitoring, individualized patient supply management, and strategic cohort nursing for HCV patients.
Additionally, closed-circuit surveillance systems, enhanced machine cleaning procedures, and robust blood spill management protocols further reinforced the infection control strategy.
Deepak Sharma, CEO, MedLern, said, “Our digital healthcare training platform is strategically designed to bridge critical knowledge gaps in healthcare settings, ensuring intuitive dissemination and retention of knowledge from the classroom to the point of care.”
