Reducing Intraoperative ESKAPE Transmission Through Use of a Personal Hand Hygiene System

Anesthesia providers in the intervention arm will be given a personal hand hygiene device, containing 64% ethyl alcohol, which provides actionable real-time performance feedback. The personalized device will be affixed to the provider's waist and will remain there for use throughout the perioperative period. Performance feedback is given to the anesthesia provider in real time with the number of personal hand hygiene events and an hourly hand hygiene rate, which is displayed on the device. Devices will be handed out to participating providers in the preoperative bay and retrieved in the post-anesthesia care unit upon case completion.
