Objective:
To determine the degree of compliance with hand hygiene measures, predictors, and change over time in an emergency department.Methods:
Cross-sectional study between 2005 and 2010 in the emergency department of Hospital General Universitario de Alicante, Spain. An observer assessed staff compliance with the World Health Organization's 5-moments approach to hand hygiene. We also studied the association between compliance and such potential predictors as age, sex, availability of pocket-sized alcohol hand rubs, and attendance at training sessions; the Χ² test was used to compare compliance between the 2005-2007 and 2008-2010 periods. A multivariate logistic regression model was then constructed.Results:
Compliance was observed in 41.1% in the 2005-2007 period and 42.3% in the 2008-2010 period. Hygiene at the moment before touching a patient improved significantly (16.3% in 2005-2007 and 29.8% in 2008-2010). The moment of best compliance was after touching patient surroundings (67.1% in 2008-2010). Factors associated with hand hygiene compliance changed over time with the exception of a stable association in both periods between hygiene at the moment before touching a patient and the availability of pocket-sized alcohol hand rubs.Conclusions:
Emergency departments should seek improvements in hygiene by providing training on the importance of hand hygiene before a patient is touched, particularly before clean/aseptic procedures, and by promoting the use of pocket-sized alcohol rubs (AU)
