Comparison of hand contamination rates and environmental contamination levels between two different glove removal methods and distances	2010-09-25		.txt	text/plain	3986	209	52	This article reports a study investigating hand and environmental contamination levels when health care workers (HCWs) followed two different methods of removing gloves at two distances from the rubbish bin. The study set out to examine the hand contamination rates and environmental contamination levels when (1) different methods of glove removal were followed, including personal or causal methods (pretest) and the CDC's recommended method (posttest), and (2) the distance to the bin varied between 2 feet and 3 feet (customary distances used by HCWs in Hong Kong), measured in the common gown down areas (ie, designated areas for HCWs to gown down their PPE) in the fever and cohort wards (wards for patients with epidemiological and clinical information suggestive of a similar diagnosis to share rooms, and with a spatial separation of at least 1 meter from one another) of a public hospital in Hong Kong.	./cache/cord-332243-6uc4ricy.txt	./txt/cord-332243-6uc4ricy.txt
