Transcript: Did you know....? Washing hands with soap and water is less effective than hygienic hand disinfectants. Hygienic disinfectants eliminate most of the bacteria that cause nosocomial infections. It is in good practice to use hygienic disinfectants before and after contact with a patient. You should use hygienic disinfectants before any type of invasive procedure. (Kampf, Loffler, & Gastmeier, 2009) Handwashing Hygienic disinfectants are often blamed for irritating, dry, and cracked hands among health care workers. Believe it or not soap and water are more damaging to the skin than hygienic disinfectants. It has been suggested that alcohol based rubs applied after hand- washing can reduce irritation caused by hand-washing. (Kampf, Loffler, Gastmeier, 2009) Key Points Clean Hands Saves Lives Important tips to remember Inweregbu, K., Dave, J., Pittard, A., (2005). Nosocomial infection.
