Feedback:
Asepsis refers to practices that minimize or eliminate pathogenic organisms. Medical asepsis refers to the practice of reducing the number of microorganisms. The goal is to prevent reinfection of the client and prevent or reduce transmission of microorganisms from one person (or source) to another. Medical asepsis (clean technique) is used in care of all clients. Surgical asepsis, on the other hand, aims to destroy all organisms and is used only in certain situations.
