  • 00:00:07
    hello
  • 00:00:07
    everyone i am shekaina aquino maranga

  • 00:00:12
    hand washing technique return
  • 00:00:14
    demonstration hand hygiene
  • 00:00:16
    is considered a primary measure to
  • 00:00:19
    prevent infections
  • 00:00:20
    and it is the single most important
  • 00:00:23
    procedure
  • 00:00:24
    to deter the spread of microorganisms
  • 00:00:27
    and therefore
  • 00:00:28
    prevent health healthcare-associated
  • 00:00:30
    infections
  • 00:00:31
    prior to the conduct of the procedure
  • 00:00:34
    first ensure
  • 00:00:35
    that the equipments to be used are
  • 00:00:37
    complete
  • 00:00:38
    this includes an easy-to-reach sink with
  • 00:00:41
    warm water
  • 00:00:42
    anti-microbial soap and paper towels
  • 00:00:48
    next we'll have to stand in front of the
  • 00:00:50
    sink remember
  • 00:00:51
    that the sink is a contaminated area and
  • 00:00:54
    so we must avoid touching it
  • 00:00:56
    and also our uniform should never come
  • 00:00:59
    into contact with the sink so as
  • 00:01:01
    to prevent the transfer of
  • 00:01:03
    microorganisms into
  • 00:01:05
    our uniforms next we'll have to remove
  • 00:01:08
    all jewelry such
  • 00:01:09
    as wristwatches and rings because
  • 00:01:13
    microorganisms can lodge into the
  • 00:01:16
    settings
  • 00:01:16
    of our jewelries next i am going to turn
  • 00:01:20
    on the water and adjust the
  • 00:01:23
    pressure now thoroughly wet
  • 00:01:27
    the hands and wrists under running water
  • 00:01:30
    the finger should be pointing downward
  • 00:01:32
    and the
  • 00:01:34
    hand and forearm should always be below
  • 00:01:37
    the elbow so that the water flows from
  • 00:01:41
    the least to the most contaminated
  • 00:01:43
    area of our hands
  • 00:01:46
    okay now inspect the condition of the
  • 00:01:49
    cuticles
  • 00:01:50
    of the hand and forearms or any
  • 00:01:52
    abrasions
  • 00:01:54
    cuts or lesions because open cuts of
  • 00:01:56
    wounds can
  • 00:01:57
    harbor high concentrations of
  • 00:02:01
    microorganisms
  • 00:02:04
    okay now apply
  • 00:02:08
    good amount of antimicrobial soap
  • 00:02:13
    and lather hands
  • 00:02:17
    thoroughly by rubbing pom-pom in a
  • 00:02:22
    circular manner
  • 00:02:24
    now now i am going to rub the back
  • 00:02:28
    of each hand with fingers interlaced
  • 00:02:32
    soap cleanses by emulsifying fat and
  • 00:02:35
    oils
  • 00:02:36
    and also it lowers the surface
  • 00:02:39
    tension
  • 00:02:43
    now rub pom-pom with fingers
  • 00:02:48
    interlaced okay
  • 00:02:50
    so now i am going to rub the back
  • 00:02:53
    of the fingers of each hand with fingers
  • 00:02:56
    and turn
  • 00:02:56
    locked
  • 00:03:00
    okay so interlacing and interlocking
  • 00:03:03
    the fingers ensures that all surfaces
  • 00:03:06
    are clamps now pay attention to the
  • 00:03:10
    thumb
  • 00:03:10
    and rub the thumb in a rotational manner
  • 00:03:16
    so rubbing and friction mechanically
  • 00:03:18
    loosens
  • 00:03:20
    um dirt and the microorganisms
  • 00:03:25
    okay next clasp the fingers and rub
  • 00:03:29
    it into the palm of the opposite hand
  • 00:03:33
    [Music]
  • 00:03:36
    okay and the other one
  • 00:03:39
    [Music]
  • 00:03:41
    now rub the wrists
  • 00:03:50
    okay so we're done we are going to
  • 00:03:54
    uh rinse off our hands under running
  • 00:03:56
    water
  • 00:03:58
    okay so rinsing
  • 00:04:02
    mechanically washes away the dirt
  • 00:04:05
    and the microorganisms into the sink
  • 00:04:18
    okay so avoid splashing the water into
  • 00:04:22
    your uniforms because
  • 00:04:26
    the microorganisms um travel
  • 00:04:29
    faster and thrive best in moist
  • 00:04:33
    areas okay so now that we're done we are
  • 00:04:36
    going to
  • 00:04:38
    uh dry off our hands
  • 00:04:42
    using paper towels
  • 00:04:45
    starting from the fingertips to the
  • 00:04:48
    wrist
  • 00:04:52
    okay now discard this paper towel and
  • 00:04:55
    i'm going to use another one
  • 00:05:03
    okay and then use another paper towel
  • 00:05:06
    to turn off the faucet
  • 00:05:11
    okay so this is done to
  • 00:05:15
    avoid touching the faucet because the
  • 00:05:17
    faucet is a contaminated
  • 00:05:18
    area and if we do touch that then we'll
  • 00:05:21
    have to
  • 00:05:23
    do the whole process again so discard
  • 00:05:26
    the paper towel
  • 00:05:27
    into the trash can and that's
  • 00:05:30
    it so in healthcare settings always
  • 00:05:34

  • 00:05:37
