    Hi all

    We currently participate in the Hand Hygiene Australia 5 moments of hand hygiene auditing. It is planned to continue with this.

    One of our units is interested in trialling some of the automated hand hygiene auditing and / or promoting systems which are available.

    Could you please let me know if any of you have experience with any of these, and if so, what your findings and experience were.

    Many thanks

    Hi Janet

    Mary-Louise McLAws, UNSW has had extensive local experience with these so I would contact her as a starting point. She is our national expert on them and she published on this in collaboration with Westmead Children’s Hospital I think.

    There are also several published papers in AJIC and ICHE which discuss various methods and outcomes. See this website for info
    http://www.ehcohealth.org/category/the-evidence/

    Connie Steed and Elaine Larson are both based in the US and together they spearheaded use of these systems. I could connect you if that would be helpful.

    Also there are a number of papers being presented at APIC 2017 on automated monitoring of HH. I am happy to bring back and share any info I gain from those presentations.

    Cheers

    PS. Looking at the edition of AJIC which came out this week there are several papers on HH monitoring and an editorial by Pittet (which unsurprisingly promotes WHO’s direct observer method). All makes for interesting reading and discussion.
