Annotation	The Oxford University book highlights the problems with lying prostrate for long periods of time while being in the hospital. As how it increases your chance for sepsis, which is the widespread of bacteria throughout the entire body. Commonly is Pneumonia in older   patients whom are restricted to the bed after surgery or other illness, especially if always lying prostrate on their back.  The author uses past examples and history to support the well known fact of lying prostrate increasing the chance for infection.
Potential Quotes	“In 1846 when working at the Allgemeines Krankenhaus in Vienna, Semmelweiss noted that the maternal mortality in the ward attended by students was far higher than in that staffed by nurses. He suspected the difference was due to the students coming directly from the dissection room and infecting the parturient women they examined. When he enforced their thorough washing, the maternal mortality fell from 9.9% to 1.3%.” showing the first time sepsis was first truly noticed.
Assessment	This is from the Oxford University which is a world renowned leading medical university known for both its research and excellent care and so it lends itself to be known as credible and worthy to be used as a supporting article.
Reflection	This article talks about the negative effects of staying prostrate for long periods of time in the hospital and the increase of infection that has been confirmed. Which I will use to support my ideas for improvements in patient care to help negate the effects of staying prostrate for long periods of time.
