We assessed the quality of hand hygiene among healthcare workers at a pediatrics hospital in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Hand hygiene was performed in 491 (34%) of 1,455 opportunities. Of these hand hygiene events, correct performance was observed in only 173 (35%). Multivariate analysis revealed that correct performance of hand hygiene was associated with the use of an alcohol-based product and a lack of jewelry (for all events) and employment in an infirmary with a comparatively higher ratio of nurses to patients (for events involving nurses).
我们评估了巴西里约热内卢一家儿科医院医护人员的手卫生质量。在1455次手卫生时机中，有491次（34%）进行了手卫生操作。在这些手卫生事件中，仅观察到173次（35%）操作正确。多变量分析显示，手卫生操作正确与使用含酒精产品、不佩戴首饰（所有事件）以及在护士与患者比例相对较高的医务室工作（涉及护士的事件）有关。
