HANDHYGIENE FOR HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS
HAND HYGIENE YOUR FIRST-LINE DEFENSE The World Health Organization World Alliance for Patient Safety reported that hand hygiene is considered the most important measure to prevent and control health care associated infections.(1) That’s why Medline has assembled a comprehensive hand hygiene compliance program to complement specific products that make effective hand hygiene possible.
STRATEGIES FOR HAND HYGIENE IMPROVEMENT 1. SYSTEM CHANGE. Ensure that the necessary infrastructure is in place to allow health-care workers to practice hand hygiene. Build a network of hand hygiene sites that are as near to the point-of-care as possible. 2. TRAINING & EDUCATION. Implement training programs on the how, when and why of hand hygiene. See that caregivers understand the reason for hand hygiene is improving patient outcomes. 3. EVALUATION & FEEDBACK.
EVIDENCE-BASED RECOMMENDATIONS from Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and World Health Organization SANITIZE If hands are not visibly soiled, use an alcohol-based hand rub for routinely decontaminating hands in all other clinical situations.2 The following two formulations are recommended by the WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION for alcohol-based hand rubs: ethanol 80% (v/v) or isopropyl alcohol 75% (v/v).3 The FDA and CDC have recommended alcohol concentrations between 62 and 95% as far back as 1994.
