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.

Burn injuries occur when the skin and underlying tissues are damaged due to exposure to heat, electricity, chemicals, radiation, or friction. They can vary in severity, from minor superficial burns to severe deep burns that can be life-threatening.
The damage results in the death of skin cells, which can lead to a massive loss of fluid. Dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, and renal and circulatory failure follow, which can be fatal. Burn patients are treated with intravenous fluids to offset...

Area of Science:

  • Occupational Medicine
  • Dermatology
  • Nursing Health

Background:

  • Occupational skin disease is prevalent among healthcare workers.
  • Moderate to severe dermatitis can create significant challenges for return to work (RTW).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of an RTW program for nurses with occupational hand dermatitis.
  • To identify successful interventions and strategies for facilitating RTW.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective chart review of nurses receiving RTW services at an occupational medicine clinic.
  • Analysis of diagnosis and RTW status data.

Main Results:

  • 18 nurses with irritant hand dermatitis were included.
  • Initially, 67% were in administrative roles; others had modified patient care.
  • A graduated RTW trial with optimized skin care and monitoring was common.

Conclusions:

  • Graduated RTW trials are crucial for reducing irritant exposure.
  • This strategy facilitates nurses' return to direct patient care roles.
  • Successful interventions help maintain nurses in their professional roles.
