[Research in hospital health at the Institute of General and Community Health of the Greifswald Ernst-Moritz-Arndt University].
With a retrospect of the historical development of hygiene in Greifswald the essential tasks of research in hospital hygiene especially during the last two decades are shown. The problems of hospital hygiene have been treated already before the establishment of the Institute of Hygiene of the University. Friedrich Loeffler, who as a young researcher had already treated the problems of disinfection and antisepsis, has founded the systematic hygienic-microbiological-virological working direction in Greifswald. Out of this in the following years with different essential tasks and devotion the hospital hygiene has developed in Greifswald. During the process of differentiation and forming of the department and later the Institute of General and Communal Hygiene was the hospital hygiene an essential task of research work. As peculiarity to this a close research co-operation has been developed with the territorial Institute of Hygiene of District Hygiene Inspection Rostock.
