Invasive burn wound sepsis with Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a major concern in burn patient care settings. It is difficult to treat and may cause high mortality among patients with extensive burn wounds. Therefore, one primary goal of burn care is to prevent colonization and infection of P. aeruginosa. Patient colonization refers to the isolation of the targeted pathogen (organism) from the patient (e.g., sputum, wound surface, urine, and stool).

The early 2000s saw the surfacing of severe acute respiratory syndrome or SARS, the large-scale return of tuberculosis or TB, an influenza pandemic, and the intentional dispersion of diseases like anthrax – all of which are highly infectious airborne diseases. Authors noted that densely populated urban areas and offices, schools, other buildings, aircraft, and other mass transport vehicles (where people spent most of their time) were ideal for the transmission of SARS.
