exercise and immobility on body systems.
Factors influencing a person's body
alignment and activity, activity-exercise
pattern, alignment, mobility capabilities

surgical asepsis by looking at risks for
nosocomial infections, signs of localized

barriers discussed here defend the body
against microorganisms. The video
differentiates active from passive immunity
and identify relevant nursing diagnoses
and contributing factors for clients at risk
for infection and who have an infection,
interventions to reduce risks for infections
and measures that break each link in the
chain of infection. This video clearly
compares and contrasts category specific,
disease-specific, universal, body
substance, standard, and
transmission-based isolation precaution
systems and goes ahead describing the
steps to take in the event of a bloodborne
pathogen exposure while correctly
implementing aseptic practices, including
hand washing, donning and removing a
