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.

Transmission of nosocomial infections from person to person must be prevented by always maintaining hand hygiene after carrying out inspection activities and interaction activities in hospitals, one of them by doing hand hygiene. Awareness of the importance of hand hygiene in health workers is needed in efforts to prevent nosocomial infections. The hand hygiene compliance rate obtained at One of Private Hospital in Yogyakarta is 80%. Awareness of the importance of the implementation of hand hygiene does not yet exist or has not emerged in the nurse itself, while it is very important in addition to protecting himself from the transmission of infection and can reduce the risk and spread of nosocomial infections in the hospital. This study uses an observational analytic method with a cross-sectional design. The sampling technique uses proportional random sampling, with the number of samples studied as many as 89 people. The research data were analyzed using the chi-square test. The p-value of 0.040 (p 0.05) indicates that there is a relationship between knowledge and nurse compliance in the implementation of hand hygiene. A p-value of 1.00 (p 0.05) indicates that there is no relationship between attitude and nurse compliance in the implementation of hand hygiene. P-value of 0.425 (p 0.05) indicates that there is no relationship between motivation and nurse compliance in the implementation of hand hygiene

Background: Over the past 10 years, a rural health system has tried 10 different interventions to reduce hospital-associated infections (HAIs), and only 1 intervention has led to a reduction in HAIs. Reducing HAIs is a goal of nearly all hospitals, and improper hand hygiene is widely accepted as the main cause of HAIs. Even so, improving hand hygiene compliance is a challenge. Methods: Our facility implemented a two-phase longitudinal study to utilize an electronic hand hygiene reminder system to reduce HAIs. In the first phase, we implemented an intervention in 2 high-risk clinical units. The second phase of the study consisted of expanding the system to 3 additional clinical areas that had a lower incidence of HAIs. The hand hygiene baseline was established at 45% for these units prior to the voice reminder being turned on. Results: The system gathered baseline data prior to being turned on, and our average hand hygiene compliance rate was 49%. Once the voice reminder was turned on, hand hygiene improved nearly 35% within 6 months. During the first phase, there was a statistically significant 62% reduction in the average number of HAIs (catheter associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI), central-line–acquired bloodstream infections (CLABSIs), methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs), and Clostridiodes difficile experienced in the preliminary units, comparing 12 months prior to 12 months after turning on the voice reminder. In the second phase, hand hygiene compliance increased to >65% in the following 6 months. During the second phase, all HAIs fell by a statistically significant 60%. This was determined by comparing the HAI rates 6 months prior to the voice reminder being turned on to 6 months after the voice reminder was turned on. Conclusions: The HAI data from both phases were aggregated, and there was a statistically significant reduction in MDROs by 90%, CAUTIs by 60%, and C. difficile by 64%. This resulted in annual savings >$1 million in direct costs of nonreimbursed HAIs.Funding: NoneDisclosures: None

Background: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a growing clinical problem in rehabilitation hospitals, where patients stay for extended periods for intensive rehabilitation therapy. In addition to cutaneous sites, the nares could be a source for nosocomial MRSA transmission. Decolonization of nasal and cutaneous reservoirs could reduce MRSA acquisition. We evaluated the effectiveness of topical intranasal octenidine gel, coupled with universal chlorhexidine baths, in reducing MRSA acquisition in an extended-care facility. Methods: We conducted a quasi-experimental before-and-after study from January 2013 to June 2019. All patients admitted to a 100-bed rehabilitation hospital specialized in stroke and trauma care in Singapore were screened for MRSA colonization on admission. Patients screened negative for MRSA were subsequently screened at discharge for MRSA acquisition. Screening swabs were obtained from the nares, axillae, and groin and were cultured on selective chromogenic agar. Patients who tested positive for MRSA from clinical samples collected >3 days after admission were also considered to have hospital-acquired MRSA. Universal chlorhexidine baths were implemented throughout the study period. Intranasal application of octenidine gel for MRSA colonizers for use for 5 days from admission was added to the hospital’s protocol beginning in September 2017. An interrupted time series with segmented regression analysis was performed to evaluate the trends in MRSA acquisition before the intervention (January 2013–July 2017) and after the intervention (September 2017–June 2019) with intranasal octenidine. August 2017 was excluded from the analysis because the intervention commenced midmonth. Results: In total, 77 observational months (55 before the intervention and 22 after the intervention) were included. The mean monthly MRSA acquisition rates were 7.0 per 1,000 patient days before the intervention and 4.4 per 1,000 patient days after the intervention (P < .001), with a mean number of patient days of 2,516.3 per month before the intervention and 2,427.2 per month after the intervention (P = .0172). The mean monthly number of MRSA-colonized patients on admission to the hospital decreased from 24.8 before the intervention to 18.7 after the intervention (P < .001). Mean monthly hand hygiene compliance rate increased significantly from 65.7% before the intervention to 87.4% after the intervention (P < .001). After adjusting for the number of MRSA-colonized patients on admission and hand hygiene compliance rates, a constant trend was observed from January 2013 to July 2017 (adjusted mean coefficient, 0.012; 95% CI, −0.037 to 0.06), with an immediate drop in September 2017 (adjusted mean coefficient, −2.145; 95% CI, −0.248 to −0.002; P = .033), followed by a significant reduction in MRSA acquisition after the intervention from September 2017 through June 2019 (adjusted mean coefficient, −0.125; 95% CI, -4.109 to -0.181; P = .047). Conclusions: Topical intranasal octenidine, coupled with universal chlorhexidine baths, can reduce MRSA acquisition in extended-care facilities. Further studies should be conducted to validate the findings in other healthcare settings.Funding: NoneDisclosures: None
