Comparing rubbing and scrubbing surgical hand antisepsis with propan-1-ol 60% in accordance with European regulation UNE-EN 12791:2016+A1:2018. Infect Control Hosp Epidemiol. 2021 Nov;42(11):1382-1384. doi: 10.1017/ice.2020.13880899-823X1559-683410.1017/ice.2020.1388https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/105930A crossover trial was conducted to compare hand rub and hand scrub-brush methods for reducing bacterial loads when using propan-1-ol-60% according to European regulations. Both methods significantly reduced the bacterial load immediately after antisepsis, but only the hand rub method achieved significant bacterial load reduction 3 hours after the procedure.engjournal articlehttps://doi.org/10.1017/ice.2020.138833478620https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/infection-control-and-hospital-epidemiology/article/comparing-rubbing-and-scrubbing-surgical-hand-antisepsis-with-propan1ol-60-in-accordance-with-european-regulation-uneen-127912016a12018/217EEE0AB494140497D918B4F93D54E0embargoed access579 MicrobiologíaAntisepsisCrossover trialSurgical site infectionMicrobiología médicaEnfermedades infecciosas2414 Microbiología
