简要总结
Hand sanitizers are a standard of hygiene requirements. They must be effective at reducing germ count on the hands while ideally providing emollients to moisturize the skin after use. Spectrum™ Advanced Hand Sanitizer Foam (70%) (hereby referred to as Spectrum Advanced Foam) kills over 99.99% of germs within 15 seconds while boasting double digit increases in hand moisture after two weeks of use.
In 2002 and 2009 the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and World Health Organization (WHO) published guidance that hands should remain wet for at least 15 seconds while being rubbed together after application of an alcohol-based hand rub, though the recommendations do not specify the volume of product to be apply.
This study will evaluate the "wet time" of Spectrum Advanced Foam, which will be defined as the length of time in which the sanitizer foam stays wet on the hands while the participant rubs their hands with the foam sanitizer. The participant will first be asked to wash and dry their hands. Participants will review the appropriate hand sanitizer application steps, as detailed by the WHO guidance. Then, a 1.0 milliliter (mL) or 1.4 mL aliquot of Spectrum Advanced Foam will be dispensed from an automated dispenser to the participant's hands. The participant will be asked to rub their hands together following the WHO method for hand sanitizer application until they declare the product has dried sufficiently for the donning of medical gloves. Study personnel will measure the wet time of Spectrum Advanced foam using a stopwatch.
详细描述
Hand sanitizers are a standard of hygiene requirements. They must be effective at reducing germ count on the hands while ideally providing emollients to moisturize the skin after use. In 2002 and 2009 the CDC and WHO published guidances that hands should remain wet for at least 15 seconds while being rubbed together after application of an alcohol-based hand rub, though the recommendations do not specify the volume of product to be apply. The CDC specifically recommends applying alcohol-based hand sanitizers by applying the manufacturer-recommended amount of sanitizer directly to the palm of one hand and then rubbing the hands together. The sanitizer must entirely cover the surfaces of both hands and all fingers while rubbing the hands together until the product has dried. The goal of this study is to evaluate the "wet time" of Spectrum Advanced Foam, which will be defined in this study as the length of time in which the foam sanitizer stays wet on the hands while the participant rubs their hands with the foam sanitizer.
