    AbstractTransmission of bacterial and viral infections to patients from improper anesthesia infection prevention and control practices continues to be reported. "Recommendations for Infection Control for the Practice of Anesthesiology" were recently revised. The process used to develop an anesthesia infection prevention assessment tool is described. The tool is intended to encourage collaboration between infection preventionists and anesthesia providers in an effort to assess infection prevention and control practices in various health care anesthesia settings.Copyright © 2013 Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology, Inc.
