Sanitary and epidemiological rules
SP 3.1.7.2616-10
"Prevention of salmonellosis"

(approved by Resolution of the Chief State Sanitary Doctor of the Russian Federation dated April 26, 2010 No. 36)

I. Scope of application

1.1. Sanitary rules establish the basic requirements for a set of organizational, sanitary and anti-epidemic (preventive) measures aimed at preventing the occurrence and spread of salmonellosis cases among the population.

1.2 Compliance with sanitary and epidemiological rules is mandatory for individual entrepreneurs and legal entities, regardless of their legal form and form of ownership.

1.3. Control over the implementation of these sanitary rules is entrusted to the bodies exercising state sanitary and epidemiological supervision.

II. General provisions

2.1 Salmonellosis is a widespread infection of humans and animals caused by various representatives of the genus Salmonella enterica.

2.2 Salmonella pathogens have the ability to survive significantly on environmental objects, depending on temperature, humidity and the severity of infection.

2.3 The main sources of the infectious agent are farm animals and birds. The most epidemically significant sources of the pathogen are currently chickens, cattle and pigs. In certain areas characterized by national characteristics food, small cattle and horses can act as sources. Rodents, primarily rats and mice, also represent a massive reservoir of Salmonella infection. The role of humans as a source of infectious agents in salmonellosis has been proven. In these cases, it poses the greatest danger to young children and the elderly, as well as persons with weakened immune systems. An infected person (especially an asymptomatic carrier) poses a particular danger if he is involved in the preparation and distribution of food, as well as the sale of food products.

2.4 The mechanism of transmission of the pathogen is realized primarily through the food (alimentary) route. In this case, the factors of transmission of the pathogen are food products, primarily such as meat and meat products, eggs and cream products. Of particular danger in connection with possible transovarial transmission of the pathogen are chicken eggs, infected before laying, as well as products made from them, including mayonnaise and dried egg powder. Salmonellosis diseases are known to be associated with the consumption of cheeses, feta cheese, fish, including smoked fish, and seafood.

Water as a factor in the transmission of infectious agents is of secondary importance. The real epidemic danger is represented by water from open reservoirs contaminated with sewage emissions (sewage discharges, wastewater discharges from meat processing plants and slaughterhouses, as well as poultry and livestock farming facilities).

The contact route of transmission of the pathogen is most often realized in hospital settings, where transmission factors are household items, hands of service personnel, linen, cleaning equipment, medicinal solutions and other transmission factors.

Transmission of the pathogen is possible through dust when inhaling air containing an aerosol contaminated with the pathogen.

2.5 The incubation period ranges from 2 - 6 hours to 2 - 3 days. With household transmission, it can increase to 4 - 7 days.

III. Laboratory diagnostics

3.1 Laboratory studies aimed at detecting and identifying salmonella, as well as conducting serological tests, are carried out by laboratories accredited to work with pathogens of pathogenicity groups III - IV, regardless of organizational, legal forms and forms of ownership in accordance with current regulatory legal acts.

3.2 The main method for confirming the presence of salmonella is bacteriological (isolation and identification of the pathogen using culture media and biochemical tests).

The material for research can be feces, vomit, gastric lavage, and, if necessary, urine, blood, bile and other secretions from the affected organs of patients.

3.3 Serological research methods (Passive Hemagglutination Test (RPHA), if necessary, with separate determination of IGM and IGG antibodies and others) and molecular genetic methods (Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and others) are used as auxiliary methods.

3.4 The main criterion indicating that the isolated pathogen belongs to the Salmonella genus is its antigenic structure. The basis for determining the antigenic formula of Salmonella is the Kauffman-White scheme, which essentially represents a catalog of antigens that have primary diagnostic value.

The latest published scheme by Kauffman-White (2001) includes 450 groups comprising 2501 serovars.

3.5 Etiological decoding of salmonellosis cases should be carried out no later than the 4th - 5th day from the moment the samples were taken.

IV. Detection of salmonellosis cases in humans

4.1 Identification of cases of salmonellosis in humans, as well as bacteria carriers, is carried out by medical workers of treatment and prevention organizations (TPO), regardless of the form of ownership and departmental affiliation during outpatient appointments, home visits, medical examinations, medical examination and other events.

4.2 Persons with intestinal dysfunctions, those who have had salmonellosis, as well as those entering work in the food industry, trade, etc. are subject to examination for the presence of salmonellosis pathogens. Catering, water use facilities, to children's institutions, as well as to medical institutions.

4.3 A medical worker who has established a diagnosis of salmonellosis (or if it is suspected, taking into account clinical and epidemiological data), collects clinical material from the patient (feces, blood, vomit, gastric lavage, urine, if necessary) on the day of treatment and before the onset of etiotropic treatment.

4.4 When treating a patient at home, the collection of material for research is carried out by the staff of medical institutions.

4.5 Delivery of clinical material to the laboratory in order to establish the etiology of the pathogen and its biological properties is carried out within 24 hours.

4.6 The diagnosis is established on the basis of clinical signs of the disease, laboratory test results, and epidemiological history.

4.7 According to the degree of reliability of the diagnosis, cases of salmonellosis are classified as suspicious, probable or confirmed.

4.7.1 Suspicious case of salmonellosis - fever over 38 °C, diarrhea, vomiting, abdominal pain.

4.7.2 A probable case of salmonellosis is the connection of the disease with the consumption of products that are epidemically significant for salmonellosis.

4.7.3 Confirmed sporadic case of salmonellosis - isolation of a specific Salmonella serovar from clinical material.

4.8 In case of an epidemiologically proven outbreak, the diagnosis is made based on the clinical and epidemiological history.

Serological examination data (in paired sera, an increase in antibody titer of at least 4 times against salmonella of a certain group in the RPGA reaction) or a positive PCR result are used as auxiliary methods for laboratory confirmation of cases or to establish the source of infection.

V. State sanitary and epidemiological supervision

5.1 State sanitary and epidemiological surveillance of salmonellosis is a dynamic surveillance of the epidemic process, including monitoring the morbidity of the population, the biological properties and ecology of pathogens isolated from people, animals, in raw materials and food products, in water and other objects environment, for risks associated with the safety of food, water and other environmental objects, forecasting and assessing the effectiveness of ongoing activities.

6.3 Patients suspected of salmonellosis are isolated from organized groups.

6.4 Hospitalization of identified patients (patients with suspected salmonellosis) with salmonellosis and bacteria carriers is carried out according to clinical and epidemiological indications.

6.5 Identified patients with symptoms, persons who communicated with patients, and workers in certain professions associated with the production, storage, and transportation of food products and individual products are subject to mandatory laboratory testing for salmonellosis in an epidemic outbreak.

6.6 In an epidemic outbreak, in order to identify routes and factors of transmission of the pathogen, a laboratory study of food residues or dishes suspected of being a factor in the transmission of infectious agents, examination of food raw materials, swabs from eggs, equipment, hands, utensils, and other environmental objects are also carried out.

6.7 Monitoring of persons exposed to the risk of infection in epidemic outbreaks is carried out by medical workers of institutions where the outbreak is registered or territorial treatment and preventive institutions.

Duration medical supervision is 7 days and includes a survey, examination, observation of stool character, thermometry.

6.8 Routine disinfection in the apartment fireplace is carried out by family members after instructions given by medical workers.

6.9 Final disinfection is carried out by specialists from organizations that have the right to engage in disinfection activities.

6.10 Persons at risk of infection are given emergency prophylaxis with a bacteriophage.

VII. Anti-epidemic measures in foci of nosocomial salmonellosis

8.11 Production control at dairy processing enterprises must include microbiological control, which includes analysis of each batch of product produced for the presence of salmonella. Milk, cream, fermented milk and fermented liquid products are examined once every 10 days. When studying starter cultures, the contents of each container are analyzed.

8.12 At public catering establishments, as part of production control, the presence of pathogenic microorganisms is determined once every 6 months, and 30% of each type of food is subject to inspection.

8.13 In objects retail food products the presence of pathogenic microorganisms is checked in perishable food products at the stage of their sale once a year using 1 sample from each product group according to the assortment list.

8.14 In objects wholesale trade food products, similar studies are carried out to the same extent.

8.15 The study of water, washouts from equipment and workers’ hands is carried out according to epidemic indications by decision of the bodies exercising state sanitary and epidemiological supervision.

IX. Preventive measures to prevent salmonellosis in hospitals

XI. Rules for discharge and dispensary observation of convalescents after salmonellosis

Workers of certain professions, industries and organizations, as well as children attending nurseries educational institutions(DOW), boarding schools, summer health institutions, adults and children in other types of closed institutions with round-the-clock stay, must be discharged after clinical recovery and a single laboratory examination with a negative result, carried out 1-2 days after the end of treatment in a hospital or at home.

The remaining persons who have had salmonellosis and do not belong to the above-mentioned groups are discharged after clinical recovery. The need for their bacteriological examination before discharge is determined by the attending physician, taking into account the characteristics of the clinical course of the disease.

If the laboratory tests performed before discharge are positive, the course of treatment is repeated.

If the results of a control laboratory examination of workers in certain professions, industries and organizations, carried out after a second course of treatment, are subject to dispensary observation with a temporary transfer to another job for 15 days, not related to the production, preparation, storage, transportation and sale of food products, as well as work on water supply facilities, direct service to children, the elderly and disabled people in hospitals and round-the-clock institutions. During these 15 days, a one-time laboratory examination for salmonellosis is carried out. If the result is negative, the person is allowed to return to work; if the result is positive, the tests continue at intervals of every 15 days. If salmonella is isolated within 3 months, these persons are suspended from their main work for a period of at least 1 year. After this period, stool and bile are examined 3 times for the presence of salmonella with an interval of 1-2 days. If they receive negative results, these persons are allowed to return to work. If they receive at least one positive result, they are considered to be chronic bacteria carriers and are removed from work, where they may pose an epidemic danger.

Workers of certain professions, industries and organizations, children attending preschool educational institutions, boarding schools, summer health institutions, as well as adults and children staying in closed institutions with round-the-clock stay, who have had acute forms of salmonellosis, are allowed to work and visit these institutions after discharge from a hospital or treatment at home on the basis of a doctor’s certificate of recovery and in the presence of a negative result of a laboratory test for salmonellosis.

Children of general education institutions, summer health institutions, boarding schools and for a month after an illness are not allowed to be on duty in the dining room.
