Infection Management

Infection Management Clinical Pathway

Infections can complicate recovery and put patients at serious risk, especially when other health challenges are present. At CORALVITA, our Infection Management Pathway provides hospital-level care for patients with persistent or severe infections that require prolonged treatment. We combine advanced medicine, infection control protocols, and compassionate care to support healing and prevent future complications.

Who This Pathway Is For

This pathway is ideal for patients who:

• Require long-term IV antibiotic therapy (e.g., for osteomyelitis, endocarditis, or resistant pneumonia)
• Are recovering from sepsis or systemic infections
• Have complex wound infections or surgical site infections
• Need close monitoring after an infection has delayed recovery
• Are immunocompromised and require specialized infection prevention strategies

‍

What You Can Expect

Comprehensive Evaluation
Upon admission, our physicians and infectious disease specialists assess the patient’s infection history, current status, and any antibiotic resistance. This evaluation informs a tailored treatment plan.

IV Antibiotic Therapy
Many patients in this pathway require extended IV antibiotics. Our team manages central lines, dosing schedules, and lab monitoring to ensure therapy is both effective and safe.

Infection Control Measures
We follow strict infection prevention protocols, including isolation measures when needed, to protect patients and prevent cross-contamination.

Integrated Multidisciplinary Care
Our infection management team works closely with wound care specialists, respiratory therapists, nutritionists, and rehabilitation staff to address the infection while supporting the body’s overall healing process.

Patient & Family Education
Families are guided on signs of infection, proper hygiene practices, and safe line or wound care techniques that may continue after discharge.

‍

Outcomes We Aim For

• Resolution or stabilization of complex infections
• Safe and effective completion of antibiotic therapy
• Reduced risk of recurrent or secondary infections
• Improved overall recovery and readiness for the next phase of care
• Increased family confidence in infection prevention at home
