摘要

人们认识到医疗机构中的水和废水对患者构成风险，但无水护理尚未在英国医疗机构中广泛实施。我们对感染预防与控制从业人员、非感染预防与控制临床医生、物业管理经理和工程师进行了问卷调查，以确定实施无水护理的障碍。水的替代品，尤其是用于沐浴的清洁湿巾和干洗发水，在病人的接受度方面存在挑战。人们对清洁湿巾的储存、处置、可持续性和生产过程中的污染等方面存在担忧。物业和工程方面的问题包括水箱周转的相对大小以及工程造成的临床干扰。还需要进一步研究减少用水量的可接受性和患者的意见，但此次问卷调查的结果为医护人员对无水护理的看法提供了依据。

Implementation and barriers to waterless care: a questionnaire study of infection prevention and control practitioners, clinicians, and engineers

Background

Water and wastewater in healthcare settings are recognized to represent a risk to patients. However, waterless care has not been widely implemented in UK healthcare settings.

Aim

To identify barriers to implementation of waterless care.

Methods

A questionnaire study of infection prevention and control (IPC) practitioners, non-IPC clinicians, and estates managers and engineers was undertaken.

Findings

Alternatives to water present challenges in perceived acceptability to patients, particularly cleansing wipes for bathing and dry shampoo. There are concerns about cleansing wipes in terms of storage, disposal, sustainability and contamination during manufacture. Estates and engineering concerns include relative water tank size for water turnover and clinical disruption due to works.

Conclusion

Further work is required on acceptability of reduced water scenarios and patient views but the results of this questionnaire provide a grounding for sentiment from healthcare workers on waterless care.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Hospital Infection is the editorially independent scientific publication of the Healthcare Infection Society. The aim of the Journal is to publish high quality research and information relating to infection prevention and control that is relevant to an international audience. The Journal welcomes submissions that relate to all aspects of infection prevention and control in healthcare settings. This includes submissions that: provide new insight into the epidemiology, surveillance, or prevention and control of healthcare-associated infections and antimicrobial resistance in healthcare settings; provide new insight into cleaning, disinfection and decontamination; provide new insight into the design of healthcare premises; describe novel aspects of outbreaks of infection; throw light on techniques for effective antimicrobial stewardship; describe novel techniques (laboratory-based or point of care) for the detection of infection or antimicrobial resistance in the healthcare setting, particularly if these can be used to facilitate infection prevention and control; improve understanding of the motivations of safe healthcare behaviour, or describe techniques for achieving behavioural and cultural change; improve understanding of the use of IT systems in infection surveillance and prevention and control.
