Comparison of The Effects of Different Time Reminder on Surgical Hand Scrub: A Randomized Controlled Study
When surgical hand scrubing is not done properly, it can negatively affect patient outcomes.
In addition to the entire surgical team being able to perform surgical hand scrubing properly, every student studying in the health field who will work in operating rooms should also learn and practice surgical hand washing correctly.
In this context, this study aims to evaluate the satisfaction and success of different time reminder systems on students' surgical hand scrubing skills.
