Aim: To report a survey about self-reported adherence to recommendations aimed to reduce the transmission of COVID-19, among health care personnel. Material and Methods: A cross-sectional survey among health professionals about adherence to recommendations to prevent COVID-19 transmission was carried out in a public hospital in Chile. The survey had 11 questions and was developed using Delphi methodology, according to the recommendations of the World Health Organization and the Centers for Disease Control. Results: The survey was answered by 137 of 155 invited workers. Hand washing, use of personal protection equipment, use of the elbow or tissue to sneeze, out-of-hospital hand washing and exclusive use of the uniform in the hospital, had an adherence of over 90%. The adherence to face touching avoidance during working hours, and face mask use in the public areas, was over 50%. No statistical differences were observed between gender or professionals. Conclusions: The adherence reported by health care workers was adequate in most of the evaluated recommendations.info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSociedad Médica de SantiagoRevista médica de Chile v.148 n.11 20202020-11-01text/htmlhttp://www.scielo.cl/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S0034-98872020001101589es10.4067/S0034-98872020001101589 |
