Hand Hygiene

HyGreen, from Xhale Innovations, is a hand hygiene reminding and recording system designed to help healthcare facilities keep infection rates down, enhancing patient safety. After cleaning their hands with alcohol containing soap or gel, a staff member places them under a HyGreen sensor that sniffs for alcohol and sends a wireless “all clean” message to a badge worn by the staff member. A wireless monitor mounted above the patient’s bed searches for the message-if it’s absent, the badge vibrates, reminding the healthcare worker to wash.
