<\/p>\nLa adecuada higiene de manos antes de comer y despu\u00e9s de ir al ba\u00f1o, preparar y consumir alimentos o en el proceso de atenci\u00f3n m\u00e9dica previene enfermedades diarreicas, respiratorias e infecciosas hospitalarias, inform\u00f3 la especialista de la Unidad de Vigilancia Epidemiol\u00f3gica del Hospital Ju\u00e1rez de M\u00e9xico (HJM).<\/p>\n
En el D\u00eda Mundial de la Higiene de Manos, que se conmemora el 5 de mayo, la experta se\u00f1al\u00f3 que es la medida costo-ben\u00e9fica con mayor impacto positivo en el mundo para disminuir la prevalencia de enfermedades infecciosas, en especial las asociadas a la atenci\u00f3n a la salud, la mortalidad asociada y el impacto econ\u00f3mico por hospitalizaciones.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Explic\u00f3 que el lavado de manos con agua y jab\u00f3n o uso de alcohol-gel es fundamental tambi\u00e9n al llegar a casa o al trabajo; durante el trayecto en transporte p\u00fablico o cuando no se tiene posibilidad de lavarse las manos, no debemos tocarnos la cara o la nariz para evitar infecciones con bacterias o microrganismos.<\/p>\n
A\u00f1adi\u00f3 que es necesario que las ni\u00f1as y los ni\u00f1os se laven las manos despu\u00e9s de jugar con tierra o en el suelo, ya que los par\u00e1sitos pueden entrar al tracto gastrointestinal y provocar una infecci\u00f3n diarreica.<\/p>\n
En el \u00e1mbito hospitalario, la epidemi\u00f3loga resalt\u00f3 la utilidad de esta acci\u00f3n preventiva para disminuir el riesgo de infecciones asociadas a la atenci\u00f3n a la salud (IAAS), que se encuentran entre los eventos adversos m\u00e1s frecuentes en la prestaci\u00f3n de estos servicios; cada a\u00f1o se producen en el mundo 136 millones de infecciones resistentes a los antibi\u00f3ticos por esta causa.<\/p>\n
En las unidades de salud, el personal sanitario debe realizar el correcto lavado de manos con agua y jab\u00f3n antes del contacto con pacientes para protegerlos de cualquier microorganismo; en caso de suministrar medicamentos, tambi\u00e9n deben usar guantes.<\/p>\n
En caso de tener contacto con l\u00edquidos corporales o hacer alguna curaci\u00f3n con herida abierta, se deben lavar las manos inmediatamente despu\u00e9s, para evitar llevarse las bacterias en la ropa o en el material m\u00e9dico.<\/p>\n
El D\u00eda Mundial de la Higiene de Manos fue establecido por la Organizaci\u00f3n Mundial de la Salud (OMS). Este a\u00f1o el lema es: \u201cSalva vidas, limpia tus manos\u201d, con el objetivo de sensibilizar a la poblaci\u00f3n en general y al personal m\u00e9dico sobre la importancia de esta acci\u00f3n para prevenir enfermedades.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
