- W2036376776 abstract "Around 10% of hospital patients acquire a healthcare-associated infection and it has been estimated that around one-third of these could be prevented. This article discusses the causal link between hand hygiene and infection and the reasons why healthcare workers (HCWs) fail to comply with hand-hygiene policies. The action of hand hygiene is discussed in terms of the removal of transient microorganisms and the agents used. Reasons for non-compliance and some measures for achieving compliance, such as education and patient empowerment, are discussed alongside the difficulties that these present. In order to move forward, it is suggested that the problem has to be managed through cultural change, making it easier for HCWs to comply by improving hand-cleansing facilities and materials and providing feedback to personnel on local infection rates so that high-priority areas can be targeted. This may be facilitated by locally based action research." @default.
