A Kézhigiénés Technika Vizsgálata Elektronikus Ellenőrző Berendezés Segítségével 26 Magyarországi Betegellátó Intézményben

Abstract: Introduction: Hand hygiene is probably the most effective tool of nosocomial infection prevention, however, proper feedback and control is needed to develop the individual hand hygiene practice. Aim: Assessing the efficiency of modern education tools, and digital demonstration and verification equipment during their wide-range deployment. Method: 1269 healthcare workers took part in a training organized by our team. The training included the assessment of the participants’ hand hygiene technique to identify the most often missed areas. The hand hygiene technique was examined by a digital device. Results: 33% of the participants disinfected their hands incorrectly. The most often missed sites are the fingertips (33% on the left hand, 37% on the right hand) and the thumbs (42% on the left hand, 32% on the right hand). Conclusion: The feedback has a fundamental role in the development of the hand hygiene technique. With the usage of electronic devices feedback can be provided efficiently and simply.
