Infection Prevention in Practice (IPIP) is an official journal of the Healthcare Infection Society and a sister journal to the Journal of Hospital Infection (JHI). Elsevier is proud to be the publisher for both titles. This low cost, fully open access online journal welcomes quality articles in the field of infection prevention and control, clinical microbiology and the global burden of infection in healthcare.
IPIP provides a comprehensive educational resource for all those working in the field of infectious disease prevention and treatment, through the sharing of local research studies, experiences, case reports, novel techniques, best practice and outbreak reports from clinical professionals globally, with a focus on developing countries.
The IPIP team consists of Editor-in-Chief Dr Gemma Winzor, and Editors Dr Pauline Jumaa and Dr Jim Gray. View our full editorial board.
Have you implemented a quality improvement locally in the field of infection prevention?
Do you think other infection prevention and control professionals would be interested in your project?
Infection Prevention in Practice (IPIP) is calling for comprehensive quality improvement reports.
We are aiming to publish reports that comply with SQUIRE standards for quality improvement reporting in healthcare. Submitted manuscripts would be subject to IPIP's usual editorial and peer review processes, but accepted reports would be eligible for an open access fee waiver and would be compiled into a special section of the journal showcasing the work.
Ideally, quality improvement reports are no longer than 2500 words, and would include up to five figures or tables. There is a 250-word limit for the structured abstract. A maximum of 20 references may be provided.
Deadline for submissions: 31 July 2022. Find out more here.
To find out more about the experience of submitting with IPIP, take a look at stories from IPIP authors Dr Amit Aggarwal, Specialist in Medical Microbiology at Janakpuri Super Speciality Hospital Society, Delhi, and Professor Roy D. Sleator of the Department of Biological Sciences, Munster Technological University, Ireland.
