Document: To prevent transmission within healthcare facilities, patients should be isolated in contact isolation until 8 hours after treatment. 36 Personal protective equipment for healthcare workers treating patients with scabies includes the following protective garments: gowns, gloves, and shoe covers. 36 Proper use of infection control measures including avoiding skinto-skin contact and handwashing should be observed when handling patients with potential scabies infestations. 36 Given the transmissibility of this disease and potential outbreaks that may threaten public health, ED staff should immediately inform the local health authority in cases of outbreak, defined as two or more consecutive cases of scabies among residents/staff within 4-6 weeks. 49 Timely notification of an outbreak is especially important in cases of scabies identified from healthcare facilities, shelters, or other communities where the disease could rapidly spread, including refugee and migrant shelters. In an online review of 20 hospital policies across the United States, no hospital required informing hospital infection control of scabies cases; however, individual hospital policies may vary both within the U.S. and internationally. Therefore, it is important to know and follow local hospital policies on scabies reporting. Additionally, cases of crusted (Norwegian) scabies should be isolated promptly and all close contacts should be informed and treated, given its high transmission rate. 35, 41 Using this 3I Identify-Isolate-Inform Tool, healthcare providers can be more prepared to detect and manage potential scabies cases.
