Methods: We conducted a comprehensive search in the MEDLINE database's electronic literature using the following search terms: Multidisciplinary, Approaches, Infection Control, Healthcare Management, Dentistry, Laboratory Services, Nursing, and Pharmacy. The search was restricted to publications from 2016to 2024 in order to locate relevant content. We performed a search on Google Scholar to locate and examine academic papers that pertain to my subject matter. The selection of articles was impacted by certain criteria for inclusion.

Results: The publications analyzed in this study encompassed from 2016 to 2024. The study was structured into various sections with specific headings in the discussion section.

Conclusion:Infection prevention and control is a team concept and this would involve collaboration between the Health care management, dentists, laboratory services, nurses, pharmacists and the technicians. All specializations have their pros and cons and make sure that the invention is adequately protected against infections.
