摘要

嚴重急性呼吸道症候群(SARS)的傳染性極高，可引起大規模國際間甚至國內的大流行。國內在今年四月下旬進入了感染的高峰期且陸陸續續傳出院內甚至社區群眾感染的情形，使得國家付出了相當大的社會成本。感染控制是傳染病防治非常迫切的一個課題，如何讓醫護人員甚至全國國民落實傳染病防治是非常重要的。故本篇藉由感染控制觀點談SARS病患之檢傷、醫院及居家隔離，希望在未來，醫療工作人員能藉由更有規模的感控制度，更完善的防護措施來照顧病患，而被隔離者可落實還行預防SARS散播之行爲，把院內及社區感染降到最低。

Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) endemic and pandemic problems have caused worldwide concerns this year. The costs of several episodes of nosocomial and community infections in April were enormous. Knowledge about infection control, including triage and hospital and home quarantine has become crucial in controlling these emerging diseases like SARS. We provided this paper with the hope that health care providers and patients could be better protected by well-regulated hospital infection control programs. Those being quarantined are educated to take appropriate measures to lower the risks of nosocomial or community infections.
