C361 - MLM1 – Performance Assessment 1



Impact of the Problem on the Patient

Increased risk for infection with airborne viruses due to contamination of a virus and or

germs on nursing staff’s hands.

Impact of the Problem on the Organization

Longer stays for patients and increased risk for nursing staff infections and transmissions

to coworkers and other patients. With this more contagious form of coronavirus it is more

pertinent than ever to implement strict hand hygiene on top of those forms of personal protective

equipment.

Identify the PICO components

P – In hospital nurses

I – Alcohol-based Hand Sanitizer

C – Washing hands with soap and water

O – Decreasing the amount of virus contagions on our hands during a pandemic with an

airborne and contact virus.

Evidence Based Practice Question

For in-hospital nurses, does alcohol-based hand sanitizer decrease the viral count on

hands as much as our current method of using soap and water?

, Research Article: “Hand sanitizers: A review of ingredients, mechanisms of action, modes

of delivery, and efficacy against coronaviruses”

Background Introduction Understanding hand hygiene effectiveness against COVID-19

with hand sanitizer. Sneezing and coughing produce an exuberant number of airborne droplets

and this makes hand hygiene even more crucial in order to interrupt the chain of transmission to

help stop the spread of this deadly virus.

Level of Evidence Level lll

Methodology & Data Analysis An in vitro quantitative suspension test was done also

retrospective self-reporting for some of the articles they reviewed, and their study done by

PRISMA recommendations. The authors reviewed up to date literature found in PubMed and

Google Scholar.

Ethical Considerations Volunteers

Quality Rating Good Quality

Analysis of the Results / Conclusions When using a sufficient amount for full hand

coverage (before the liquid evaporates) of alcohol-based hand sanitizer, it is enough to inactivate

the virus when soap and water is inconvenient or inaccessible. Also, the amount of alcohol that is

in the hand sanitizer is important and needs to be somewhere between 62-95% to successfully

denature the protein. This article also broke down the pros and cons between alcohol-based and

nonalcohol-based sanitizers and it still came to the overall conclusion that alcohol-based >62% is

not only cost effective for facilities but more effective in combating most viruses and other

bacteria than nonalcohol-based sanitizers [Jing, et al 2020].
