Abstract

A system which allows healthcare providers to monitor hand hygiene compliance includes a data reader adapted to be worn by a healthcare provider. The system includes a portal trigger disposed at each door portal of a patient room which activates the reader to record an entrance event when the provider enters the patient room. The system includes a dispenser trigger disposed at each cleaning dispenser having cleanser in or at the entrance of each patient room which activates the reader to record a dispensing event when the provider causes the dispenser to dispense cleanser, the reader having a display which displays a number of dispensing events and a number of entrance events. A
method which allows healthcare providers to monitor hand hygiene compliance. A system which allows a person to monitor hand hygiene compliance. A method for allowing a person to monitor hand hygiene compliance.

Claims (33)

1. A system which allows healthcare providers to monitor hand hygiene compliance comprising:
a data reader adapted to be worn by a healthcare provider;
a portal trigger disposed at each door portal of a patient room which activates the reader to record an entrance event when the provider enters the patient room;
and a dispenser trigger disposed at each cleaning dispenser having cleanser in or at the entrance of each patient room which activates the reader to record a dispensing event when the provider causes the dispenser to dispense cleanser, the reader having a display which displays a number of dispensing events and a number of entrance events.
2. A system as described in claim 1, wherein the display displays a ratio of the number of dispensing events and the number of entrance events.
3. A system as described in claim 2, wherein the display displays the ratio, the number of entrance events, and the number of dispensing events simultaneously.
4. A system as described in claim 3, wherein the reader includes a lock which is controlled by the provider to control access to the number of dispensing events, the number of entrance events and the ratio recorded by the reader.
5. A system as described in claim 4, wherein the dispenser includes a lever to which the dispenser trigger is engaged.
6. A system as described in claim 5, wherein the reader resets the number of dispensing events, the number of entrance events and the ratio to zero after a predetermined time.
7. A system as described in claim 6, wherein the reader includes a memory which stores the number of dispensing events, the number of entrance events and the ratio.
8. A system as described in claim 7, wherein the reader includes a timer.
9. A system as described in claim 8, wherein the reader includes a CPU.
10. A system as described in claim 9, wherein the reader is part of a tag or a pager.
11. A system as described in claim 10, wherein the triggers have a transmitter and a receiver.
12. A system as described in claim 11, wherein the reader has a transmitter and a receiver.
13. A system as described in claim 12, wherein the memory can be externally electronically interrogated.
14. A system as described in claim 13, wherein an entrance event only occurs when the reader enters the patient room.
15. A system as described in claim 14, wherein there can only be at most two dispensing events associated with one entrance event.
16. A system as described in claim 15, wherein the reader has an enabled state entered when either an entrance event or a dispensing event occurs, an activated state entered when the reader is in the enabled state and an entrance event or a dispensing event occurs, and a finalized state entered when the reader is in an activated state and a dispensing event occurs.
17. A system as described in claim 16, wherein the dispenser trigger has an enabled position and an activated position; the enabled position on the dispenser trigger is entered into as a result of, and dependent upon, the reader entering the enabled state; the activated position on the dispenser trigger is subsequently arrived at when a dispensing event occurs with the dispenser.
18. A system as described in claim 17, including an additional data reader worn by an additional healthcare provider and wherein each reader only records a dispensing event associated with the provider having the corresponding reader.
19. A system as described in claim 18, wherein the dispenser transmits a key each time the dispenser has a dispensing event associated with the reader of the provider initiating the dispensing event.
20. A system as described in claim 17, wherein the reader and the triggers use RFID to communicate with each other.
21. A system as described in claim 17, wherein the reader and the triggers use Bluetooth technology to communicate with each other.
22. A method for allowing healthcare providers to monitor hand hygiene compliance comprising the steps of:

activating a data reader worn by a healthcare provider by a portal trigger disposed at each door portal of a patient room and recording an entrance event when the provider enters the patient room;
activating the reader by a dispenser trigger disposed at each cleaning dispenser having cleanser at the entrance of each patient room and recording a dispensing event when the provider causes the dispenser to dispense cleanser; and displaying a number of dispensing events and a number of entrance events on a display of the reader.
23. A method as described in claim 22, wherein the displaying step includes the step of displaying on the display a ratio of the number of dispensing events and the number of entrance events.
24. A method as described in claim 23, wherein the displaying step includes the step of displaying the ratio, the number of entrance events, and the number of dispensing events simultaneously.
25. A method as described in claim 24 including the step of controlling a lock of the reader by the provider to control access to the number of dispensing events, the number of entrance events and the ratio recorded by the reader.
26. A method as described in claim 25 including the step of resetting the number of dispensing events, the number of entrance events and the ratio to zero after a predetermined time.
27. A method as described in claim 26 including the step of interrogating electronically the memory externally.
28. A method as described in claim 27 including the steps of entering the reader into an enabled state when either an entrance event or a dispensing event occurs, entering the reader into an activated state when the reader is in the enabled state and an entrance event or a dispensing event occurs, and entering the reader into a finalized state when the reader is in an activated state and a dispensing event occurs.
29. A method as described in claim 28 including the step of entering the dispenser trigger into an enabled position as a result of, and dependent upon, the reader entering the enabled state; and entering the dispenser trigger into the activated position when a dispensing event occurs with the dispenser.
30. A method as described in claim 29 including the step of transmitting by the dispenser trigger a key each time the dispenser has a dispensing event associated with the reader of the provider initiating dispensing event.
31. A system which allows a person to monitor hand hygiene compliance comprising:
a data reader adapted to be worn by the person;
a portal trigger disposed at each door portal of a bathroom which activates the reader to record an entrance event when the provider enters the bathroom; and a dispenser trigger disposed at each cleaning dispenser having cleanser in the bathroom which activates the reader to record a dispensing event when the provider causes the dispenser to dispense cleanser, the reader having a display which displays a number of dispensing events and a number of entrance events.
32. A system as described in claim 31, wherein there can only be at most one dispensing event associated with one entrance event.
33. A method for allowing a person to monitor hand hygiene compliance comprising the steps of:

activating a data reader worn by the person by a portal trigger disposed at each door portal of a bathroom and recording an entrance event when the person enters the bathroom;
activating the reader by a dispenser trigger disposed at each cleaning dispenser having cleanser in the bathroom and recording a dispensing event when the person causes the dispenser to dispense cleanser; and displaying a number of dispensing events and a number of entrance events on a display of the reader.
