Application of portable hand sanitizer in hand hygiene of medical staff in intensive care unit
Objective To evaluate the effect of wearing portable hand sanitizer on the hand hygiene compliance of medical staff in intensive care unit(ICU).Methods A before-after control intervention study was conducted,in which 32 medical staff in ICU were equipped with 60 mL vial of portable hand sanitizer.The concealed observation method was used to observe the surveillance video of ICU,random hand sampling method was used to determine the total number of bacterial colonies and ATP bioluminescence in hands,and questionnaire survey was used to evaluate the hand hygiene compliance and satisfaction before and after the intervention.Results The survey found that the overall compliance rate of hand hygiene increased from 54.26%before the intervention to 78.91%after the intervention,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The consumption of hand hygiene products also increased significantly after the intervention,with the estimated number of hand hygiene times per bed-day increased from 28.71 times before the intervention to 45.94 times after the intervention.The qualified rates of colony count and ATP bioluminescence detection in medical staff's hands in random sampling were high,indicating that there was no significant change in the correctness of hand hygiene compared to that before the intervention(P>0.05).The questionnaire survey showed that medical staff were satisfied with the portable hand sanitizer and believed that using the portable hand sanitizer could increase hand hygiene compliance.Conclusion Portable hand sanitizer can effectively improve the hand hygiene compliance of medical staff in ICU.
