Transmission-based precautions are IPC practices implemented for the care of patients who are known or suspected to be infected with a pathogen that is transmitted by contact (direct or indirect), droplet or airborne routes [3, 4] . More specifically the search was to identify literature that: examined the implementation of TBP upon presentation and admission to the ED to prevent transmission to both health care workers (HCW) and other patients/visitors; and relevant specifically to pathogens transmitted via the contact, droplet and airborne routes and their associated IPC practices in non-emergency (i.e. not mass casualty, epidemic, pandemic, or bioterrorism) situations in the ED setting.	./cache/cord-321837-0r86qxz1.txt	./txt/cord-321837-0r86qxz1.txt
