Abstract：Objective To investigate the hand hygiene in medical personnel and nosocomial infection control. Methods 〓Totally 82 medical workers receiving routine hand hygiene management from July, 2016 to December, 2016 were included as the control group, another 85 medical workers receiving continuous hand hygiene management from January, 2017 to June, 2017 were included as the observation group. The hand hygiene compliance of medical workers was assessed. The incidence of nosocomial infection was observed. The relationship between hand hygiene compliance and nosocomial infection was analyzed. Results 〓The hand hygiene compliance of doctors and nurse at each checkpoint was higher than that of controls, with a significant difference(P0.05). The hand hygiene compliance of logistics workers in the observation group was higher than that of controls at checkpoint before contacting with patients and sterilization operation respectively, with a significant difference(P0.05). The rate of nosocomial infection was 0.50% of 400 patients selected between July, 2016 and December, 2016, and was 2.25% of 400 patients selected between January, 2017 and June, 2017, with a significant difference(P0.05). The hand hygiene compliance was negatively related with the nosocomial infection rate(r=-0.915, P=0.008). Conclusion 〓It is required to continuously enhance the hand hygiene compliance of medical workers, which in turn could reduce the risk of nosocomial infection.
