ABSTRACTNosocomial infections is still global public health problems. Along with the problems there are resistance bacterial problem to multiple classes of antibiotics, defined as multidrug resistance organisms (MDROs). Incidence rates of MDROs in ICU is higher than in other treatment unit. Rational antibiotic use and controlling the transmission of bacterial is important to avoid MDROs. The purpose of this study was to analyze Risk Differences of MDROs according to risk factors and hand hygiene compliance in ICU patients. This study used case control design with sample size was 20 patients for each case and control groups. Samples in cases group were patients infected by MDROs in ICU, while the samples in control group were patients in ICU didn’t infected by MDROs. The independent variable are long term use of antibiotic, length of stay, the use of ventilator, and hand hygiene compliance by health worker. Analyze data used OR (Odds Ratio) and RD (Risk Difference). The conclusion was that Risk Difference of MDROs infection by long term use of antibiotics (OR 10.23 95% CI 1.12 < OR < 93.35; RD = 0.47), length of stay (OR 7.36 95% CI 1.34<OR<40.55; RD = 0.44), the use of ventilator devices (OR 9.00 95% CI 1.64 < OR < 49.45; RD = 0.48) and hand hygiene compliance (OR 6.00 95% CI 1.46 < OR < 24.69; RD = 0.42). The conclusion was that maintaining hygiene before medical treatment, environment and health workers body should be implemented so can’t became a media for bacterial MDROs growth.Keywords: antibiotic,ventilator, length of stay, hand hygiene, MDROs

Thousands patients around the world die every day because of infections when they get treatment. This is because the transmission of microbacteria from the hands of health workers. Hand hygiene is the most important aspect to prevent the transmission of microbacteria and preventing HAIs. Hand hygiene awareness of health workers is a fundamental behavior to prevent cross-infection. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the hand hygiene compliance of nurse in Unit Hemodialysis of Hajj General Hospital Surabaya. Type of this research is descriptive research and observations by using a qualitative approach. Data retrieval on the research is an interview with nurse and audit hand hygiene. Research instrument using a questionnaire of hand hygiene and BSI knowledge, and hand hygiene audit form made by WHO. The population in this research was all nurses in Hemodialysis Unit General Hospital Surabaya Hajj that add up to 11 people. The results of this research obtained that compliance with hand hygiene Unit Hemodialysis nurse is 35%. The compliance were still less and has not reached the standards established by the PPI Hajj General Hospital Surabaya that is 100% and still has not reach compliance standards of WHO that is 40%. Hand hygiene compliance was low caused by the low participation of PPI base training and the lack of availability of hand hygiene facility in the Hemodialysis Unit General Hospital Surabaya Hajj. Advice from research were conducting on job training about how to perform hand hygiene and improve hand hygiene facilities in Hemodialysis Units. Keywords: hand hygiene, compliance, nurse

Background Hand hygiene is a vital intervention to reduce health-care associated infections, but compliance remains low. The authors hypothesized that improvements in intraoperative hand hygiene compliance would reduce transmission of bacteria to surgical patients and reduce the incidence of postsurgical healthcare-associated infections. Methods The authors performed a controlled before-and-after study over 2 consecutive months. One hundred fourteen operative cases were enrolled. Two predesignated sites on the anesthesia machine were selected, decontaminated, and cultured via aseptic technique. These sites and the peripheral intravenous stopcock were cultured again after completion of the surgery. The treatment phase used a novel personal hand-decontamination device capable of recording hand-decontamination events. Results There were no significant differences in patient location, age, or case duration and procedure type between groups. Use of the Sprixx GJ device (Harbor Medical Inc., Santa Barbara, CA) increased hourly hand decontamination events by 27-fold as compared with baseline rates (P &lt; 0.002; 95% confidence interval, 3.3-13.4). Use of the device was associated with a reduction in contamination in the anesthesia work area and peripheral intravenous tubing. Intravenous tubing contamination was identified in 32.8% of cases in the control group versus 7.5% in the treatment group (odds ratio, 0.17; 95% confidence interval, 0.06-0.51; P &lt; 0.01). Healthcare-associated infections rates were reduced in the device group (3.8%) as compared with the control group (17.2%) (odds ratio, 0.19; 95% confidence interval, 0.00-0.81; P = 0.02). Conclusions Improved hand hygiene compliance through the use of a novel hand sanitation strategy reduces the risk of intraoperative bacterial transmission. The intervention was associated with a reduction in healthcare-associated infections.

Abstract: Hands are the main route of transmission of germs during patient care. Nosocomial infection transmission can occur due to poor sanitation. Hand hygiene of health workers is very helpful in preventing the transmission of harmful germs and health care-associated infections. However, health workers still have less attention about the role of hand hygiene. This study aimed to determine the doctors and nurses’ compliance rate in implementing hand hygiene in Prof. Dr. R.D. Kandou Hospital Manado. This was an observational study with a cross-sectional design. Samples were specialist doctors, residents, and nurses in IRINA A, E, and F. The general compliance rate of hand hygiene was 5,2%. Based on the profession, the hand hygiene compliance rate of doctors was 2.4% (n=21) and of nurses 6.6% (n=113). Based on the monitored time, the compliance rate before entering rooms was 3.02% (n=39) and after entering rooms 7.35% (n=95). Conclusion: Hand hygiene compliance rate among health workers was still low.Keywords: health workers, hand hygiene compliance rate Abstrak: Tangan merupakan jalur utama penularan kuman selama perawatan pasien. Penularan infeksi nosokomial bisa terjadi akibat sanitasi yang kurang. Kebersihan tangan tenaga kesehatan sangat membantu pencegahan penularan kuman berbahaya dan mencegah infeksi terkait perawatan kesehatan. Namun, pentingnya penerapan hand hygiene masih kurang mendapat perhatian oleh tenaga kesehatan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat gambaran kepatuhan tenaga kesehatan yakni tenaga dokter dan perawat dalam menerapkan hand hygiene di ruang rawat inap RSUP Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Manado. Metode penelitian yang digunakan ialah observasional dengan desain potong lintang. Sampel meliputi dokter spesialis, dokter residen, dan perawat. Angka kepatuhan keseluruhan ialah 5,2%. Berdasarkan kelompok pekerjaan, angka kepatuhan dokter 2,4% (n=21) dan perawat 6,6% (n=113). Dari dua indikasi yang diamati, angka kepatuhan sebelum masuk ruangan 3,02% (n=39) dan setelah keluar ruangan 7,35% (n=95). Simpulan: Tingkat kepatuhan hand hygiene tenaga kesehatan masih rendah.Kata kunci: tenaga kesehatan, tingkat kepatuhan hand hygiene
