Abstract

Objective: To investigate the sterilization effects of different hand washing methods,So as to provide convenient,fast,and reliable hand hygiene method for the medical staff. Methods: 60 medical staff was randomly divided into control group and experimental group. The control group used ordinary hand soap and the experimental group received free hands sanitizers respectively,after hand washing making bacterial culture. Observated the number of bacterial colonies in the hand of two groups. Results: Ordinary hand washing gel,free hand sanitizers pass rate was 73. 33% and 96. 67% separately,they both have no detected pathogens,compared the difference of two hand- washing effect included statistically significant( P 0. 05). Conclusion: Both methods can be used to hand washing sterilization for medical staff,free hand washing sanitizers group is more effective than ordinary hand washing group.
