The aim of the present study was to evaluate the prevalence of bacterial contamination of mobile phones in ICU health care providers. and especially compare the contamination rate between smartphone and non-smartphone.\n\nUsing smartphone is increasing in hospital with various purpose and it has more extended surface than non-smart phone. therefore we can consider the bacterial contamination rate of smartphone will be higher than that of non-smartphone."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '70 Years', 'minimumAge': '19 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'healthcare providers of MICU in Seoul national university hospital and Seoul national university Bundang hospital who have cellular phones', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* healthcare providers of MICU who have cellular phones\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* healthcare providers of MICU who have not cellular phones'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT01347502', 'briefTitle': 'Prevalence of Bacterial Contamination on Smart Cell Phone vs. Non-smart Phone', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Seoul National University Hospital'}, 'officialTitle': 'Bacterial Contamination of Smart Phones of Health Care Workers', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'smartphone_SNU'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'label': 'HCPs with smartphone', 'description': 'healthcare providers in MICU who have smart cellular phones'}, {'label': 'HCP with non-smart phones', 'description': 'healthcare providers in MICU who have non-smart cellular phones'}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'city': 'Seongnam-si', 'state': 'Gyeonggi-do', 'country': 'South Korea', 'facility': 'Seoul National University Bundang Hospital', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 37.43861, 'lon': 127.13778}}, {'city': 'Seoul', 'country': 'South Korea', 'facility': 'Seoul Metropolitan Government Seoul National University Boramae Medical Center', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 37.566, 'lon': 126.9784}}, {'city': 'Seoul', 'country': 'South Korea', 'facility': 'Seoul National University Hospital', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 37.566, 'lon': 126.9784}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Jae-Joon Yim, MD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'Seoul National University Hospital'}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Seoul National University Hospital', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'professor', 'investigatorFullName': 'Jae-Joon Yim', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'Seoul National University Hospital'}}}}
