Scope

Hand-washing is an important measure in preventing the spread of microorganisms. Good aseptic technique involves limiting the transfer of organisms from one person to another. By washing her hands after contact with a patient, the nurse can limit the spread of microorganisms to other people, particularly other patients. In hand-washing, both mechanical and chemical means are used to remove and destroy organisms. The running water mechanically washes away organisms, while soaps emulsify foreign matter and lower surface tension, thus facilitating the removal of oils, greases and dirt.
