- Abstract
Hospital. DR. M. Djamil Padang using a hand rub containing 45% ethanol and 18% 1-propanol (containing total alcohol 63%). Based on 2019 data, there was an increase in the use of alcohol hand rub as an antiseptic by 90% between 2012 and 2019. The use of hand rub in the field contains different compositions of compounds. The active compounds that are widely used in hand rubs are ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, n-propanol, and the combination of ethanol-chlorhexidine gluconate. To determine the choice of hand rub products, usually health workers only choose based on the antibacterial effect listed on the hand rub product. This study aimed to see the effectiveness inhibition hand rup against staphylococcus aureus bacteria. This type of research is a quasi-experimental research. The design of this study was laboratory experimental with posttest only control group design using Spread Plate method on Mueller Hinton Agar (MHA). The bacteria of this study were Staphylococcus aureus. The sample in this study amounted to 30 people in the treatment and control group.The data were processed using the SPSS program and tested for normality with the Saphiro-Wilk test and independent comparative hypothesis testing t Tes.Based on research, hand rub has effectiveness in inhibiting the growth of Staphylococcus aureus with p value = 0,000. That the provision of hand rub is statistically quite effective. However, descriptively, hand rub was more effective because the mean number of germs was much lower than the number of germs after NaCl was given. This study only compar the effectiveness of hand rub and NaCl against Staphylococcus aureus. Therefore, further research is needed to see effectiveness type hand rub against other germs that cause nosocomial infections.
