Abstract:
Objective On the background of the clinical skills competition for national medi-cal students in the higher medical colleges and universities, to investigate medical students' mastery of hand hygiene knowledge and skills, explore the effective methods of teaching, and improve the medical students' hand hygiene compliance and accuracy in clinical practice. Methods 90 medical students at a tertiary-level teaching hospital clinical practice stage were randomly selected for the study, and performed hand hygiene theoretical knowledge and practical skills training in special education. Special teaching investigation was made before and after training, to investigate the students' hand hygiene compliance rate in clinical practice. And the correct rate of hand hygiene were examined and medical students' hand hygiene compliance rate and correct rate were compared before and after the special teaching and training. Statistical analysis was made by using chi square test 2. Results After theory teaching and additional special skills training the students' hand hygiene compliance and accuracy were improved significantly (79.00%vs. 35.50%, P=0.000). The correct rate of hand hygiene was also significantly higher than before training (92.22% vs. 61.11%, P=0.000). Conclusion Hand hygiene knowledge and skills training can significantly improve the medical students' hand hygiene compliance and accuracy in the clinical practice, and is conducive to the prevention of the spread of infection in hospitals, and then reduce the incidence of hospital infection.
