If you missed out on Infection Prevention 2025 in Brighton this year, or if you want to relive some of the best bits, this Journal Club is for you! Dr Jude Robinson, Kerry Holden, and Dr Nneoma Okeke joined Dr Phil Norville and Dr Jon Otter to discuss their highlights from Infection Prevention 2025! We hope that you enjoy the discussion. Journal Club is hosted by IPC Partners (www.ipcpartners.org). IPC Partners is a collaborative of experts providing infection prevention information and solutions to healthcare providers and industry partners.

This IPC Partners Journal Club was led by Dr Jude Robinson, with Dr Phil Norville and Dr Jon Otter facilitating the Q&A. This session explored the exciting possibilities of empowering patients to improve hand hygiene (and many other aspects of their care!) based on this paper:https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2590088925000204?ref=pdf_download&fr=RR-2&rr=9638d1353c73cdaf The Q&A was great, with lots of reflection on how we productively engage patients in hand hygiene.

This Journal Club was led by Dr Nneoma Okeke, with Dr Phil Norville and Dr Jon Otter facilitating the Q&A. This session delved into the paper, which presented an epidemiological evaluation of 20 years of data related to Candida bloodstream infections in Queensland, Australia, providing insights into mortality, recurrence, and resistance. A really interesting Q&A, as ever!
