Prevention by Design: Construction and Renovation of Health Care Facilities for Patient Safety and Infection Prevention	2016-08-09		.txt	text/plain	5189	287	45	The built environment encompasses a broad range of physical design elements, including spaces for care of patients, support services, electronics, and major technical equipment; building systems that provide air and water; and surfaces and finishes. Use of an ICRA has been incorporated into design standards as well as Healthcare Infection Control Practices Advisory Committee guidelines that address construction and renovation. Design elements that support infection prevention and control Proactive planning for mitigating sources of infection both within and external to the construction project that will be affected Identify potential risk for transmission of airborne and waterborne pathogens during construction, renovation, and commissioning Develop ICRMRs to mitigate identified risks (see Appendix A for a stepwise approach to developing ICRMRs) There is evidence that an effective ICRA process can prevent HAIs. 25 Fig. 1 provides examples of effective containment methods.	./cache/cord-317028-f3bpwm5j.txt	./txt/cord-317028-f3bpwm5j.txt
