Hands and Germ Transmission:
A health-care workers hands when not clean are the main route of cross-transmission of potentially harmful germs between patients in a health care facility

Lack of Hand Hygiene + Patient Care = Increased Risks
Increased risk for: •Hand contamination•Potential risk to patient safety
![Page 6: Hand Hygiene for Health-care Workers](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052706/586b60ec1a28ab063d8bd6e8/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Hand Hygiene in Prevention of HAI’s
Hand hygiene is the undisputed single most effective infection control measure in prevention of HAI’s
![Page 7: Hand Hygiene for Health-care Workers](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052706/586b60ec1a28ab063d8bd6e8/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Increased Compliance with Hand Hygiene means …
• Reduced numbers of patients acquiring HAI’s• Decreased waste of resources • Saving lives
![Page 8: Hand Hygiene for Health-care Workers](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052706/586b60ec1a28ab063d8bd6e8/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Hand Hygiene
• right time• right way
![Page 9: Hand Hygiene for Health-care Workers](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052706/586b60ec1a28ab063d8bd6e8/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Key Terms
• The patient zone- includes the patient, surfaces and items that are temporarily and exclusively dedicated to him/her
• The Health care area- all surfaces in the health care setting outside of the patient zone
![Page 10: Hand Hygiene for Health-care Workers](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052706/586b60ec1a28ab063d8bd6e8/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The patient zoneThe patient zone contains:•Patient X•Immediate surroundings - surfaces that are touched by or in direct physical contact with the patient
-Bed rails-Bedside tables-Bed linens-Tubing-Medical equipment
![Page 11: Hand Hygiene for Health-care Workers](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052706/586b60ec1a28ab063d8bd6e8/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The Patient zone is not a static geographical area
Any item designed for reuse or temporarily exposed to the patient should be decontaminated when entering and leaving the patients surroundings
Things such as :- Computers- Shared bathrooms- Tables or equipment used for physical therapy - Wheelchairs
![Page 12: Hand Hygiene for Health-care Workers](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052706/586b60ec1a28ab063d8bd6e8/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The Health-care Area
Is everything outside of the patient zone:•Hand hygiene while caring for patients helps to protect the wider health care environment from contamination by patients germs
![Page 13: Hand Hygiene for Health-care Workers](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052706/586b60ec1a28ab063d8bd6e8/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Right Time

Let’s Practice!!!
![Page 31: Hand Hygiene for Health-care Workers](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052706/586b60ec1a28ab063d8bd6e8/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Fingernails and Artificial Nails
• Natural nail tips should be kept to ¼ inch in length
• Artificial nails should not be worn when having direct contact with high-risk patients (e.g., ICU, OR)

![Page 32: Hand Hygiene for Health-care Workers](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052706/586b60ec1a28ab063d8bd6e8/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Understanding Medical Gloves and proper Glove use
Medical gloves – disposable gloves used during medical procedures
They include:
• Examination gloves (non sterile or sterile)• Surgical gloves that have specific characteristics
of thickness, elasticity and strength and are sterile
![Page 33: Hand Hygiene for Health-care Workers](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052706/586b60ec1a28ab063d8bd6e8/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Gloves DO NOT take the place of hand hygiene
• Glove use neither alters nor replaces the performance of hand hygiene
• Gloves should be removed and hand hygiene performed when indicated by the 5 moments of hand hygiene and clean gloves put back on
![Page 34: Hand Hygiene for Health-care Workers](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052706/586b60ec1a28ab063d8bd6e8/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Rationale for using medical gloves
Recommended for two reasons:1.To reduce the risk of contamination of health-care workers hands with blood and other body fluids2.To reduce the risk of germ dissemination to the environment and of transmission from the health-care worker to the patient and vice versa, as well as from one patient to another
![Page 35: Hand Hygiene for Health-care Workers](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052706/586b60ec1a28ab063d8bd6e8/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Inappropriate use of gloves
Use of gloves when it is not indicated is a:•Waste of resources •Does not decrease cross-transmission of germs•May result in missed opportunities for hand hygiene•May actually result in germ transmission
![Page 36: Hand Hygiene for Health-care Workers](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052706/586b60ec1a28ab063d8bd6e8/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

![Page 37: Hand Hygiene for Health-care Workers](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052706/586b60ec1a28ab063d8bd6e8/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
And Now its time for the GLOVE GAME !!!
![Page 38: Hand Hygiene for Health-care Workers](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052706/586b60ec1a28ab063d8bd6e8/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
GLOVE GAME• Assisting a patient with using the bedpan• Taking Vital Signs• Removing a dressing from a wound• Catheter insertion• Delivering food trays• Emptying emesis basin• Changing the linens for a patient with MRSA • Changing a central line dressing • Administering oral Medications• Emptying a Foley catheter bag
![Page 39: Hand Hygiene for Health-care Workers](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052706/586b60ec1a28ab063d8bd6e8/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Evaluating Your Hand Hygiene Program
Why it is important…•Measurement of the effectiveness of current practices•Identifying areas needing increased education•To be able to give feedback to employees on their performance
![Page 40: Hand Hygiene for Health-care Workers](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052706/586b60ec1a28ab063d8bd6e8/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
How to observe Hand Hygiene
• Direct observation is the most accurate method• Observer must conduct the observation without
interfering with ongoing work• Observer should be familiar with “The 5
Moments for Hand Hygiene” and the data collection tool that is being utilized
• Identify opportunities for hand hygiene and then record if the worker being observed performed hand hygiene at that time
![Page 41: Hand Hygiene for Health-care Workers](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052706/586b60ec1a28ab063d8bd6e8/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
