Publication date: Available online 24 July 2017 Source:American Journal of Infection Control Author(s): E.J. Bow, V. Bourrier, J. Trudel, N. Kostiuk, J.M. McLeod A patient-driven hand hygiene compliance audit strategy was piloted in a Canadian provincial cancer agency during routine provision of cancer outpatient care by health care providers (physicians, nurses, and health care aides) under conditions where the deployment of an independent external auditor was not feasible. The results of the audit suggest the feasibility of this approach as a routine institutional performance metric. (Source: American Journal of Infection Control)
