Smrtnost in obolevnost se povečujeta ob prisotnosti bolnišničnih okužb, zato je skrbna higiena rok bistvena za zagotavljanje varne, stroškovno učinkovite in kakovostne oskrbe naših pacientov. Bolnišnične okužbe povzročajo veliko breme za paciente in zdravstvene ustanove. Poleg podaljšanja hospitalizacije in neugodnih učinkov na zdravje pacienta lahko te okužbe vplivajo tudi na finančno stanje bolnišnic zaradi povečanih stroškov zdravljenja, izgubljenega dela in pravnih sporov. Namen raziskave je ugotoviti, kakšen je pogled zdravstvenih delavcev na ustrezno higieno rok, kakšno je njihovo znanje o ustrezni higieni rok in kako vpliva redno vrednotenje na njihovo vzdrževanje higiene rok. Metode: Raziskava temelji na kvantitativni metodi deskriptivnega raziskovanja. Uporabljena je bila tehnika anketiranja s pomočjo spletnega anketnega vprašalnika. Anketni vprašalnik je bil prirejen po Van de Mortelu in po »Vprašalniku znanja o higieni rok za zdravstvene delavce« Svetovne zdravstvene organizacije. Raziskava je potekala na Očesni kliniki Ljubljana. Za zbiranje podatkov smo oblikovali spletni anketni vprašalnik, ki smo ga prek internetne pošte distribuirali ciljni populaciji. Spletni vprašalnik je bil oblikovan v spletnem orodju 1ka, ki je namenjeno oblikovanju in analizi anket. Podatki so se prav tako zbirali v spletnem orodju 1ka. Statistična obdelava je bila narejena s pomočjo programa SPSS. Rezultati: V raziskavi je sodelovalo 100 anketirancev. Večina anketirancev je mnenja, da bolnišnične okužbe nastanejo med bivanjem pacienta v bolnišnici. Večina anketirancev se tudi strinja, da higiena rok zmanjša smrtnost in stroške zdravljenja, povezane z bolnišničnimi okužbami. Prav tako se večina vključenih strinja, da lahko svoje znanje o higieni rok učinkovito prenesejo v klinično prakso. S pomočjo statističnih testov nismo potrdili nobene zastavljene hipoteze. V raziskavi nismo ugotovili povezave med higieno rok zdravstvenih delavcev in demografskimi dejavniki ter povezave z zadovoljstvom zaposlenih. V raziskavi smo ugotovili dobro znanje zdravstvenih delavcev s področja higiene rok, prav tako se zdravstveni delavci, vključeni v raziskavo, dobro zavedajo pomena higiene rok. Razprava: Ključni dejavnik je zagotoviti, da imajo zdravstveni delavci ustrezno znanje o vlogi, ki jo imajo njihove roke pri širjenju okužbe, povezane z zdravstveno oskrbo med različnimi dejavnostmi oskrbe pacientov, ki lahko povzročijo kontaminacijo rok. To zavedanje je potrebno, da jim pomaga razumeti svojo sposobnost prispevanja k preprečevanju okužb, povezanih z zdravstveno oskrbo, z učinkovito in trajno spremembo vedenja.

Title:	Evaluation of hand hygiene of health professionals in tertiary health care
Abstract:	Starting points: Hospital-acquired infections represent a major global problem. Every year, millions of people, who are, due to different illnesses, being treated or residing in various institutions, acquire one of the nosocomial infections. Mortality and morbidity increase in the presence of hospital-acquired infections, so careful hand hygiene is essential to ensure safe, cost-effective, and quality care for our patients. Hospital-acquired infections represent a great burden for patients and healthcare institutions. In addition to prolonged hospitalization and adverse effects on the patient’s health, such infections can also impact the financial condition of hospitals due to increased medical costs, lost hours of labor, and legal disputes. The research aims to investigate the healthcare professionals’ attitude towards and knowledge of hand hygiene and to determine how regular evaluation affects their maintaining of hand hygiene. Methods: The study is based on the quantitative method of descriptive research. The technique of surveying was used with the help of an online survey. The survey questionnaire was adapted from Van de Mortel and the “Hand Hygiene Knowledge Questionnaire for Healthcare Professionals” of the World Health Organization. The research took place at the Ljubljana Eye Clinic. To collect the data, we designed an online questionnaire, which we distributed to the target population via email. The online questionnaire was designed in the online tool 1ka, which was built for creating and analyzing surveys. 1ka was also used for the data collection process. Statistical processing was done using the SPSS program. Results: One hundred respondents participated in the survey. Most respondents believe that hospital-acquired infections occur during the patient’s stay in the hospital. Most respondents also agree that hand hygiene reduces mortality and medical costs associated with hospital-acquired infections. Also, most participants agree that they can effectively transfer their knowledge of hand hygiene to clinical practice. With the help of statistical tests, we did not confirm any of the hypotheses. In the research, we did not find a connection between the hand hygiene of healthcare professionals and demographic factors. Hany hygiene was also not found to be connected with employee satisfaction. The research demonstrated good knowledge of healthcare professionals in the field of hand hygiene. The participants in the study are well aware of the importance of hand hygiene. Discussion: Ensuring that healthcare professionals have adequate knowledge of the role their hands play in the spread of healthcare-associated infections during various patient care activities that may lead to hand contamination is of crucial importance. This awareness is crucial in helping them understand their ability to contribute to the prevention of healthcare-associated infections through effective and sustained behavior change.
