A study in Antimicrobial Resistance & Infection Control found a link between healthcare design and infection control, according to an article on the Becker's Infection Control & Clinical Quality website.
Accessibility of antiseptic hand rub dispensers and single- or multi-bed patient rooms can influence hospital-acquired infection rates.
Researchers examined three studies focusing on the accessibility of antiseptic hand rub dispensers; and nine studies focusing on single-patient rooms' impact.
Each of the dispenser studies showed an improvement in hand hygiene compliance. Of the nine studies focusing on patient room design, six studies showed single-patient rooms were associated with reduced infection rates.
