RESUMO
The Study Group on Hospital Hygiene of the Italian Society of Hygiene, Preventive Medicine and Public Health (GISIO-SItI) and the Local Health Authority of Foggia, Apulia, Italy, after the National Convention "Safe water in healthcare facilities" held in Vieste-Pugnochiuso on 27-28 May 2016, present the "Vieste Charter", drawn up in collaboration with experts from the National Institute of Health and the Ministry of Health. This paper considers the risk factors that may affect the water safety in healthcare facilities and reports the current regulatory frameworks governing the management of installations and the quality of the water. The Authors promote a careful analysis of the risks that characterize the health facilities, for the control of which specific actions are recommended in various areas, including water safety plans; approval of treatments; healthcare facilities responsibility, installation and maintenance of facilities; multidisciplinary approach; education and research; regional and national coordination; communication.

Partial situs inversus is not necessarily symptomatic; however, recent experience with a child affected by this condition and polysplenia led us to reconsider the approach to such cases. The collection of as much pre operative information as possible is desirable in order to delineate a correct surgical approach. In particular, the presence of gastrointestinal anomalies, e.g., duodenal dilatation, should be assessed individually, since they are virtually always pathological and not necessarily related to the situs inversus. At laparotomy all of the intra-abdominal contents should be carefully assessed.

The authors report on the presence of anti-HCV antibodies in a uremic chronic (UC) patient population after 6 months and 1 year with regard to certain selective preventive measures. The nonincreased number of HCV-positive subjects among the UC population could lead to the conclusion that the risk of environmental spreading of HCV is less than the risk of HBV diffusion.
