ABSTRACT
Objective:To study the role of ultraviolet fluorescence detection technology in personal protective equipment education (PPE) and training.Methods:A study was designed to inspect the risk of self-contamination during PPE doffing between 77 healthcare workers. Used a fluorescent tracer slurry which put on the hands, chest, abdomen, knees to simulate the contaminations. Self-contamination of scrubs and skin was measured using ultraviolet light visualization respectively.Results:According to the uv-fluorescer simulating study, 43 (55.8%) of the medical staff had contamination after the removal of PPE, and the main sites of contamination included: left side of the abdomen 11 (11.70%), left side of the chest 9 (9.57%), left forearm 6 (6.38%), left foot instep 6 (6.38%), neck 6 (6.38%), right shoulder 5 (5.32%), etc. Among them, the frequency of simulated fluorescence pollution in the group with working years less than 6 years was less than that in the other groups, and the difference was statistically significant compared with the group of 11-15 years ( t value was -3.685, P value was 0.001 ). Conclusion:Ultraviolet fluorescence labeling detection technology can directly, quickly and effectively evaluate and feedback the key contaminated parts in the process of using PPE, which can provide detailed evidence for redesigning PPE and improve the PPE training process to reduce the contamination.
