Subject: Hand Hygiene auditing in the operating roomDear all,
I am interested to know if anyone does HH auditing in the operating room.
It is my intention to do some ad hoc audits in the New Year.
I have already done a preliminary assessment and the biggest challenge is defining the areas (patient care zone or health care zone).
The HH audit tool currently in use easily suits a ward but will it suit this type of critical care area.
Has anyone audited this area?
If so, how did you define the zones for each group (anaesthetic team / surgical team / theatre tech)?
If any of you have audited this area, did you adapt the current HHA tool or did you use another?
Look forward to your responses.
Maree
