At Sterixa, every outbreak consult is led by a board-certified Infectious Diseases physician with fellowship training in Infection Prevention and Control. Our process includes:
Outbreak consults are prioritized. Urgent cases can be addressed within hours to support timely containment.
Review of case definitions, line lists, lab results, and epidemiological patterns to determine if outbreak criteria are met.
Applying PIDAC-IPC, PHO, CDC, and WHO standards, we assess transmission dynamics and recommend tailored interventions — including isolation, cohorting, environmental cleaning, PPE, and staff management.
Guidance on staff, resident, family, and public health communication to ensure clarity and transparency.
Ongoing case tracking and adjustments to control measures as new cases emerge.
Clear criteria provided, typically based on incubation periods and absence of new cases, in alignment with public health requirements.
• Suspected or confirmed outbreaks (e.g., respiratory, gastrointestinal, scabies, MDROs). • Concern that multiple cases may represent transmission within the facility. • Uncertainty around when to declare an outbreak or when to declare it over. • Need for a structured, physician-led outbreak management framework. • Requirement for outbreak documentation or reporting guidance for public health and regulatory compliance.
Sterixa ensures that every outbreak is managed with a comprehensive, evidence-based framework, grounded in clinical expertise and public health alignment. From the first suspected case to the final outbreak resolution, facilities receive clear, timely, and actionable guidance that protects residents, staff, and organizational safety.
