When using soap and water there is often not enough time in a busy shift for health care workers to decontaminate their hands before and after every patient contact. DeBug™ is quick and easy to apply, is readily available at the bedside, and is more effective than traditional Hand Hygiene products.

DeBug™ is a user-friendly alternative to soap and water and results in improved outcomes for patients by reducing hospital-acquired infections. DeBug™ is unique because it contains 70% Isopropyl Alcohol (kills bugs instantly), 0.5% Chlorhexidine Gluconate (provides antibacterial residual effect) in an emollient base (causes less skin drying). Solutions such as DeBug™ are superior to gel-based products.

To improve Hand Hygiene compliance DeBug™ is located at the foot of the every bed, using a specifically designed bracket. Studies have shown that bedside availability dramatically improves health care worker compliance. Additionally, DeBug™ is placed in high-use areas including nurse’s stations and on mobile equipment (e.g. IV trolleys). To minimise the likelihood of adverse events, DeBug™ should not be placed at or above eye height.

Health care worker acceptance and ownership of DeBug is essential. This can be achieved by implementing a successful “culture change” program similar to our DeBug Infection Prevention Program. In addition, we also developed an interactive Hand Hygiene learning package for credentialling of all health care workers at Austin Health.

More than 20 published studies have shown that alcohol-based hand rubs are much more effective than either plain soap or soap that kills germs in reducing the number of live bacteria on the hands of workers.

In fact, studies have proven that nurses who routinely cleaned their hands between patients by using a modern alcohol-based hand rub had less skin irritation and dryness than nurses who washed their hands with soap and water.

Chlorhexidine is an in-office and home care oral rinse.Used in conjunction with home care programs, Chlorhexidine rinse may be used for the treatment of gingivitis, periodontitis, oral irrigation, post-operative healing, and to reduce and reduction of tissue inflammation, bleeding and plaque accumulation.

This problem may have been a result of frequent use of soap and water. The use of DeBug™ may lead to an improvement in the condition of your hands because it contains an emollient, does not remove skin lipids and does not require paper towel for drying. However if symptoms persist medical opinion should be sought. DIPP | Hand Hygiene | Other Important interventions | Getting Staff Involved | Surveillance | Impact | FAQ's

You typically do not have to hand-modify the code once it is generated. At the start of the project, there is normally some modification of the templates that s done by hand. And, you will write some custom code, because it really isn't possible to automatically write all of the code for every application. Remember, there is no silver bullet! For simple applications (basically filing and reporting), you might not have to do any hand coding.

We can preserve all of it, but you have to think the problem through. If the modification is something structural, you probably should be modifying the templates, not the application. If it is a matter of custom business logic, you can write it as a module, and use ResQSoft™ Engineer to hook it up to the application being created. In that situation, the code is preserved and re-inserted each time generation is performed.

ANSWER: Antibacterial lotion is NOT as effective as antibacterial soap. Antibacterial lotion is typically put on unwashed hands and there is no subsequent rinsing of the hands. Antibacterial soap is more effective because there is rinsing of the hands. In fact, antibacterial soap is no more effective than regular soap. Washing hands does not kill microorganisms -- it simply removes them from the hands.

Since the door has a wood frame with very heavy glass, it is possible that the door may rub although the case may be square as measured using a carpenter level. If the door rubs, it is necessary to adjust the floor levelers at the bottom of the cabinet. Release the pressure from the front of the cabinet and screw the right-front leveler out approximately one full turn. Do not adjust the left front leveler at this time.
