DETECTION OF HYGIENE COMPLIANCE

摘要

The present technology relates to apparatuses, methods and systems for detecting hygiene compliance, particularly in hospital and clinical settings, where hospital acquired infections (HAIs) are of concern. A temperature signature can be determined and then used to ascertain whether a user is compliant with a given hygiene standard. The present technology also relates to sanitizing compositions used in conjunction with such apparatuses, methods and systems.

1. A method of measuring hygiene, comprising:
(a) contacting a portion of a user's body with a sanitizing solution that creates a temperature signature on the surface of the portion of the user's body having contact with the sanitizing composition; (b) determining the temperature signature; and (c) comparing the temperature signature with a known temperature signature for the user or the sanitizing composition.
