Abstract:
Objective To explore the effects of cleaning staff's hygienic management intervention on the infection of staphylococcus aureus (SAU) in hospitalized patients. Methods Totals of 450 hospitalized patients from January to August 2016 in each department were selected. Starting from May 2016, the cleaning staff in charge of the departments were involved in the management of hand hygiene. The changes of hand hygiene awareness and infection control knowledge of the cleaning staff before and after the intervention were compared. Staphylococcus aureus infection was monitored in real time, and compared before and after the intervention. Results Before the intervention, the hygiene awareness of the cleaners was (39.81±3.28), and the hand hygiene rate was 60.15%. After the intervention, the hygiene awareness was (45.22±4.83), and the hand hygiene rate was 84.28%. The differences before and after intervention were statistically significant (t=2.219, χ2=4.463; P< 0.05). The average score of infection control knowledge before and after the intervention were (39.3±5.6) and (82.8±6.4) respectively, with a statistical difference (t=2.139, P=0.037). There were 112 cases of staphylococcus aureus infectoin in all departments before the intervention, and 71 cases after the intervention, with a statistical difference (χ2=2.983, P=0.027). Conclusions To strengthen the management of hand hygiene can effectively improve the hospitalization environment and reduce staphylococcus aureus infection.
