Abstract:
Objective To investigate the current status of hand hygiene(HH)compliance with concealed observa-tion method,compare compliance rates of HH of health care workers(HCWs)obtained through concealed observa-tion method,direct observation method and monitoring observation method,provide effective surveillance methods and means for further improving HH compliance.Methods Data about HH compliance and HH products consump-tion in a hospital obtained through monitoring observation method,concealed observation method,and direct obser-vation method were collected,all observed HCWs have received unified training,the correlation among three me-thods and HH consumption were explored.Results Differences in HH compliance rates obtained by different ob-servation methods were statistically significant(x2=17.401,P<0.001).The direct observation method had the highest HH compliance rate at 95.08%,while the concealed observation method had the lowest HH compliance rate at 50.83%.The daily consumption of HH products was highest in department of neonatology,at 119.14 mL/bed-day,and lowest in department of pediatrics,at 10.39 mL/bed-day.The monitoring observation method(r=0.975,P=0.005)and the concealed observation method(r=0.949,P=0.012)had a good correlation with the consump-tion of HH products.The concealed observation method showed that the department with the highest HH compli-ance rate was department of neonatology,at 90.00%.Conclusion The actual HH compliance can be indirectly re-flected by comprehensive monitoring observation method and the consumption of HH products per bed-day.
