BACKGROUND
The skin is the largest organ of the body, where many microorganisms reside. These microorganisms can produce detrimental effects if introduced into the body through surgical incisions. Therefore, the aseptic applications of the surgical site, with proper antiseptics, are necessary prior to an invasive medical procedure.
OBJECTIVES
This study aims to identify the knowledge, attitudes, and practices on skin asepsis with the use of antiseptics and to identify the most preferred antiseptic by healthcare professionals in Sri Lanka, which allows understanding of whether the current procedure of skin antisepsis is up to the standard.
METHODS
A descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out among 210 healthcare professionals.
RESULTS
Most participants had poor knowledge (92.9%) and attitudes with moderate practices (55.2%).
CONCLUSION
This study highlights the need to improve further the existing skin antiseptic applications to address the gaps in knowledge, attitudes, and practices.
背景
皮肤是人体最大的器官，有许多微生物寄居。如果这些微生物通过手术切口进入体内，会产生有害影响。因此，在进行侵入性医疗程序之前，使用适当的消毒剂对手术部位进行无菌处理是必要的。
目的
本研究旨在确定使用消毒剂进行皮肤无菌处理方面的知识、态度和实践情况，并确定斯里兰卡医疗保健专业人员最喜欢的消毒剂，以便了解当前的皮肤消毒程序是否符合标准。
方法
对210名医疗保健专业人员进行了描述性横断面研究。
结果
大多数参与者知识水平较差（92.9%），态度一般，实践情况中等（55.2%）。
结论
本研究强调需要进一步改进现有的皮肤消毒应用，以弥补知识、态度和实践方面的差距。
