RESUMO
Objective To investigate the value of adenosine triphosphate(ATP)bioluminescence assay for assessing object surface contamination degree in intensive care unit(ICU).Methods 30 groups of high frequency contact object(including ventilator panel,bedside table and computer keyboard)in ICU from January to December 2016 were enrolled for the study. Each object was sampled and evaluated before and after disinfection,and their surface was divided into two areas,whose sur-face contamination degree was evaluated by ATP bioluminescence assay and bacterial culture method that were classified as ATP group and control group.The fluorescence detection value and colony number were compared between two groups be-fore and after disinfection.The correlation between the fluorescence detection value and colony number was analyzed by Pearson correlation in the same sample,and the Kappa consistency test was used for the qualification rates of two detections. Results ①The fluorescence detection value and colony number of ventilator panel,bedside table and computer keyboard af-ter disinfection in two groups were significantly lower than that before disinfection(t=8.107~26.393,all P<0.05).②Pearson analysis result showed that both before and after disinfection,the fluorescence detection value had no significant cor-relation with colony number of ventilator panel,bedside table and computer keyboard(r=0.199~0.338,all P>0.05).③There were no significant differences in the qualification rate between two groups of ventilator panel,bedside table and com-puter keyboard before and after disinfection(χ2=0.000~1.404,all P>0.05).The qualification rate before the disinfection of ATP group and control group were 0 and 8.9%,and that after disinfection were 86.7% and 91.1%,whose Kappa consis-tency test result showed that the Kappa value was 0.776(95%CI:0.575~0.978)>0.75,so the consistency was quite sat-isfied.Conclusion ATP bioluminescence assay could be used as a rapid and handy preliminary screening to assist bacterial culture method to evaluate the object surface contamination in ICU,and the result was satisfactory and it would be worthy of clinical application.
RESUMO
Objective To detect bacterial content on surface of mobile phones of health care workers (HCWs)by adenosine triphosphate (ATP )bioluminescence assay.Methods HCWs in departments of internal medicine,surgery, medical laboratory,and administration were randomly selected,50 in each department,field detection on bacterial content on surface of mobile phones of HCWs was conducted,the relevant data were recorded.Results A total of 200 mobile phones were detected,33 mobile phone surface were qualified,the qualified rate was 16.50%.Qualified rate of mobile phone surface of HCWs in different departments as well as mobile phone disinfected by different modes were different(χ2 =13.46,10.24,respectively,both P 0.05).Conclusion The qualified rate of bacterial content on surface of HCWs’mobile phone is low,the awareness of hand hygiene of HCWs should be strengthened,regular cleaning and disinfection on the mo-bile phone can effectively reduce bacteria on the mobile phone surface.
