In this randomized study, use of alcohol-based hand-rub disinfection significantly reduced bacterial bioburden of stethoscopes in routine clinical use. Prior cleaning of stethoscopes on the study day did not affect baseline contamination rates, which suggests that the efficacy of alcohol disinfection is short-lived and may need to be repeated between patients.
在这项随机研究中,使用酒精基手部擦拭消毒可显著减少听诊器在常规临床使用中的细菌生物负荷。研究当天对听诊器进行预先清洁并不会影响基线污染率,这表明酒精消毒的效果是短暂的,可能需要在患者之间重复进行。
