Infektiologie - Neue Szenarien, zunehmende Aufgaben
Infectiology - New scenarios, ever increasing tasksPublication History
Publication Date:
20 June 2005 (online)

Auf dem Gebiet der Infektionskrankheiten waren in den letzten Jahren eine Reihe wichtiger Fortschritte zu verzeichnen. Dazu gehören neben neuen grundlagenwissenschaftlichen Erkenntnissen in der medizinischen Mikrobiologie und Immunologie auch anwendungsbezogene Fortschritte in der klinischen Infektiologie und Tropenmedizin, internationalen Gesundheit, Klinikhygiene und Präventivmedizin. Durch eindrucksvolle Erfolge der antimikrobiellen Therapie und Präventivmedizin hatte die Aufmerksamkeit der Infektiologie gegenüber nachgelassen, ihre Bedeutung wurde unterschätzt.
Das Spektrum der infektiologischen Problemstellungen hat sich gewandelt. Nosokomiale Infektionen, zunehmende Resistenzen, neue Erreger, geänderte epidemiologische Bedingungen, veränderte Infektionsabläufe bei Immundefekten sowie bioterroristische Szenarien repräsentieren derzeit die klinischen und wissenschaftlichen Aufgabenfelder und stellen auch an die öffentliche Gesundheitsvorsorge neue Herausforderungen.
