Official title

Building an Optimal Hand Hygiene Bundle: A Mixed Methods Approach

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

Hand hygiene is the single most effective practice in preventing the spread of hospital-acquired infections. Despite the strength of the evidence, hospital staff continue to sanitize their hands less than half of the time required by guidelines. Effective interventions are needed to improve hand hygiene compliance rates among hospital staff, but most are of poor quality and do not examine the specific effects of individual interventions. This study will build a "bundle" of three hand hygiene interventions using a research design that allows for the effectiveness of each intervention to be measured individually and combined.
