Hygiene And Prevention In Hand Washing

Hygiene and prevention in hand washing

Introduction

Ignaz Semmelweis was a Hungarian doctor whose work showed that washing their hands could drastically reduce the number of women who die after childbirth. This work took place in the 1840s, while he was director of the Maternity Clinic at the General Hospital of Vienna in Austria. Washing your hands is of enormous importance in the matter of hygiene, the simple act of washing your hands with soap and water eliminates up to 80% microbes causing various diseases. The frequent practice of this cleaning routine reduces the cases of diseases, and the bacteria and viruses that the hands transport. Hospital and environmental hygiene has acquired more attention in recent years for several reasons.

Developing

If the hospital workers do not wash their hands, new pathogens would be generated, and then there would be a great possibility of transferring pathogens to patients. That is, washing your hands is an essential act for the patient treaty in a hospital, and not to cause pathogen transfer to them. Like washing our hands, it also has the occasional danger, for example, soap is the chemical compound that is obtained when a fatty acid is react with an alkali such as sodium hydroxide (NaOH). This is the reason why when refining an oil to avoid losses, fat is not completely neutralized and that a small degree of acidity is always neutralized.

Then when we were sorry we are eliminating bacteria, fungi, parasites and contaminating traces of our skin, with which if we abuse it, it can cause infections, the washing should be limited to certain moments of the day, when eating, when handling food, after having been incontact with feces or after having been doing some activity that implies that their hands get dirty.

It can also cause contact allergies, when rubbing the skin with the soap, part of the skin’s fat layer is lost. And that can produce irritative and contact dermatitis. Although now washing your hands and showering daily, it is normal, in the past it has not always been the same, before the soap did not exist.

And our ancestors used scented oils and waters. And there was also no toilet paper, what they used was herbs and leaves. With developing countries it is more or less similar to what has been said above, the same resources are not used, nor with such advanced materials. Almost all modern inventions have one or many fundamental discoveries that make it possible, sometimes these discoveries were made hundreds of years ago.  It is likely that genetic technologies confront society with important questions about the way we see ourselves and why we want to use our greatest understanding and capacity. 

conclusion

One hundred years ago the way in which the universe existed, for many it was just a matter of faith. Throughout humanity, many very important scientific contributions have been discovered. As electricity, electricity is a set of phenomena produced by movement and interaction between positive and negative electricity loads of physical bodies. The Italian physicist Alessandro Volta discovered that certain chemical reactions could produce electricity, and in 1800 the Voltaic battery (an early electric battery) that produces a constant electric current produced, and so it was the first person to create a constant flow flowElectric.
