In a survey of 5 hospitals, we found that floors in patient rooms were frequently contaminated with pathogens and high-touch objects such as blood pressure cuffs and call buttons were often in contact with the floor. Contact with objects on floors frequently resulted in transfer of pathogens to hands.
在对5家医院的调查中，我们发现病房的地面经常被病原体污染，而且诸如血压计袖带和呼叫按钮等高接触物品常常接触地面。接触地面上的物品经常会导致病原体传播到手上。
