Handwashing II: Pre-procedure and Initial Procedure Steps

1.7K
The pre-procedure steps of handwashing include removing jewelry and rolling up sleeves. However, many organizations allow staff to wear wedding rings.
The hand washing procedure itself includes the following steps. First, cover cuts, if any, on hands with a waterproof dressing. Cuts and abrasions can become contaminated with bacteria hindering the ability to clean the area thoroughly. In addition, repeated hand washing can worsen an injury.  The nails must be short and clean, without nail...

Asepsis is the practice of preventing or breaking the chain of infection. The nurse employs aseptic techniques to prevent the spread of microorganisms and reduce the risk of diseases. Hand hygiene is the cornerstone of aseptic techniques and is classified into medical and surgical asepsis. Medical asepsis includes hand hygiene and the use of gloves. Surgical asepsis, or the sterile technique, refers to practices that render and keep objects and areas free of microorganisms.

Peripheral Artery Disease III: Interprofessional Care

583
Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) is characterized by narrowed arteries that diminish blood flow to the extremities. Effective management of PAD requires an interprofessional approach involving various healthcare professionals. The critical aspects of interprofessional care for PAD patients focus on risk factor modification, drug therapy, exercise therapy, nutrition therapy, critical limb ischemia care, and interventional radiology and surgical procedures.The primary treatment goal for PAD...

Handwashing I: Introduction and Types of Equipment

5.3K
Handwashing is hand hygiene with plain or antimicrobial soap and water to physically remove dirt, organic material, and microorganisms. However, it may not kill all microorganisms. The handwashing procedure requires a hand wash basin, liquid soap, paper towels, a domestic waste bin, and disposable nail cleaner as optional equipment.
Hand wash basins in clinical areas should have faucets that can be turned on and off without using the hands; that is, they should be non-touch or lever-operated....

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Surgical Training
  • Interprofessional Healthcare

Background:

  • Hand surgery requires effective training for healthcare professionals in a multidisciplinary setting.
  • An interprofessional induction program was developed for hand trauma co-ordinators (HTCs), core trainees (CTs), and specialty trainees (STs).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the impact of an interprofessional induction on participants' knowledge.
  • To assess participant feedback on the interprofessional aspects and overall quality of the induction.

Main Methods:

  • Validated multiple-choice questionnaires were administered pre- and post-induction to 18 participants.
  • Statistical analysis using Student's t-test was performed on score improvements.
  • Feedback was collected using Likert scales, Yes/No questions, and free-text responses.

Main Results:

  • Overall MCQ scores significantly improved by 3.8/16 points (p < 0.0001).
  • All trainee groups (HTC, CT, ST) showed significant score improvements.
  • Participants rated educational content and presentation highly and believed the induction improved teamworking (83%) and patient care (89%).

Conclusions:

  • The interprofessional induction effectively enhanced knowledge across all experience levels within the multidisciplinary team.
  • The program fostered interprofessional collaboration, contributing to safer and more effective patient care.
  • This training model is beneficial for other specialties operating in multidisciplinary environments.
