Intravenous conference: Stephen Rowley, Lead Cancer Nurse UCLH and ANTT UK Lead is presenting at the IPS IV Conference in Harrogate. Stephen will be talking about implementing ANTT as an NHS Trust standard aseptic techniqe. Stephen explains “Since 2004, 76 of 175 Acute NHS Trusts in England have requested the ANTT implementation pack. A review of hospital data and experiences following ANTT implementation demonstrates ANTT is an effective framework for standardising and improving aseptic practice across large clinical workforces. Findings also suggest this can have a positve effect on helping reduce hospital acquired infection. The reasons why ANTT has been so widely adopted and is the NHS’s first standard defined aseptic technique are discussed. Future plans for the project will also be given”.
