Data collection methods
Data Collection Procedure
Other study references:These result of our study are parallel with the
research conducted by (Hessels et al., 2016) where most nurses (94%)
reported always or often adhering to SPs and SP adherence was observed
82%. On the other hand our results are dissimilar with the outcomes of a
research carried out in Italy by (Alhumaid et al., 2021) that showed low
level of adherence of standard precautions of nurses and documented a gap
among health care providers regarding adherence with standard
precautions. Frequent ongoing infection control training sessions on
standard precautions and proper equipment availability within the hospital
might have been the factors behind higher percentage of nurses having

Study result:Adherence with the hand hygiene, in case of more
likelihood of interaction with possibly contaminated biological
materials, is a key precaution to prevent the spread of infection. The
findings of this study reflects that 96% nurses have adhered with
standard precautions regarding hand hygiene,, 92% and 76%
respectively by removing gloves and after contact with biologically
contaminated material. (table 2)
Other study references:These Our results are congruent with
outcomes of a research conducted by Nasirudeen et al. regarding
students’ knowledge and practice in Singapore that indicated
that 66.3% showed positive scores regarding practice and 48.9%
had good knowledge about hand hygiene. (Nasirudeen et al.,
