In infection prevention, the answer you need often cannot wait until you get back to your desk.

Infection Prevention and Control: The CIC Pocket Guide gives infection preventionists and certification candidates a practical, rapid-access reference for the decisions that arise during rounds, outbreak investigations, surveillance review, exposure management, and everyday infection-control practice.
Built for point-of-need use rather than cover-to-cover reading, the guide organizes complex IPC topics into predictable PROCESS, PATHOGEN, and SITUATION entries so you can locate critical information quickly.
Inside, you can:
  • Apply Standard, Contact, Droplet, Airborne, and protective precautions with clear PPE and isolation guidance
  • Review MRSA, VRE, CRE, C. difficile, Candida auris, tuberculosis, respiratory viruses, emerging pathogens, and high-consequence agents
  • Strengthen prevention of CLABSI, CAUTI, ventilator-associated events, and surgical site infections
  • Work through NHSN surveillance definitions, incidence rates, SIR/SUR calculations, outbreak line lists, epidemic curves, and case definitions
  • Review sharps injuries, bloodborne exposures, occupational health, staff vaccination, and post-exposure management
  • Navigate antimicrobial stewardship, public-health reporting, emergency preparedness, program management, quality improvement, and regulatory readiness
  • Reference environmental controls including water management, construction ICRA, air handling, cleaning, disinfection, sterilization, and endoscope reprocessing
  • Scan the QR code at the back of the book to access audio references for additional review support
The guide spans 21+ major practice areas and draws on widely accepted CDC, HICPAC, APIC, CBIC, NHSN, and related infection-prevention frameworks.
Whether you are preparing for CIC certification or need a reliable professional reference during practice, this guide helps put essential IPC concepts within immediate reach.
