RESUMEN
El contacto con objetos y personas en el entorno hospitalario favorece la propagación de gérmenes que amenazan a los pacientes; el lavado de manos es una estrategia clave para prevenir infecciones. En este estudio, transversal y cuantitativo, se midió la adherencia al lavado de manos en personal ambulatorio y de urgencias de Assbasalud ESE, según los cinco Momentos de la Higiene de las Manos de la OMS, y se evaluó el impacto después de impartir capacitación. Lo anterior se realizó en tres fases precapacitación, capacitación y poscapacitación, las cuales contaron con el aval del Comité de Calidad de la IPS. En la formación se tuvieron en cuenta las etapas de la higiene de manos, el uso de esmaltes y joyas y la pertinencia de las sustancias empleadas para la asepsia. La adherencia obtenida al lavado de manos en la primera fase fue del 61,8% y en la segunda, del 78,3%. Estos resultados son positivos con relación a estudios internacionales. Se concluye que el lavado de manos, valorado en 78,3% durante el cuarto trimestre de 2013, es una excelente estrategia para prevenir infecciones hospitalarias.
