Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of ATP fluorescence detection on on-site monitoring and supervision of healthcare-associated infection management .Methods ATP bioluminescence analyzer was used to detect the con-tamination status of hands of health care workers(HCWs),the object surfaces,and the cleaning tools in all quarters of 2015,the detection results were timely given feedback,and improvement measures were put forward.Results A total of 1 294 specimens were detected,the overall qualified rate was 62.75%.The qualified rates of hands of HC-Ws,object surfaces,and cleaning tools increased from 54.35%,50.30%,and 60.26% in the first quarter to 76.42%,64.80%,and 79.52% in the fourth quarter respectively,tendency chi-square test showed that difference was statistically significant (all P <0.05).The median of relative light unit (RLU)of hands of HCWs,object sur-faces,and cleaning tools were 20.00,85.00,and 35.00,respectively.Conclusion ATP fluorescence detection for on-site monitoring and supervision for cleaning and disinfection effect can promote the continuous quality improve-ment of hand hygiene and environmental cleanliness.
