Brief Summary:
This study is designed to examine the impact of a personalized, body worn alcohol dispenser on the epidemiology of ESKAPE transmission in the anesthesia work area for patients undergoing surgery requiring general anesthesia.
Detailed Description:
A solid body of published and preliminary evidence leveraging systematic phenotypic and whole cell genome analysis and innovative surveillance technology has provided great insight into the epidemiology of perioperative bacterial transmission and healthcare-associated infection (HAI) development. This work has led us to three primary assertions that serve as the foundation of our scientific premise: 1) Further progress towards HAI prevention is needed, 2) Prevention of perioperative ESKAPE transmission is an important improvement target, and 3) An evidence-based, multi-faceted program can reduce perioperative ESKAPE transmission. Further work to generate intraoperative hand hygiene improvement is indicated. We hypothesize that the proposed program will generate sustained reductions in OR ESKAPE exposure and S. aureus transmission that will lead to sustained reductions in perioperative HAIs.
