Hand hygiene training with augmented reality for health students and staff
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This trial tests if an augmented reality system can improve how health students and hospital staff learn proper handwashing. You'll use the system during one training session and have your handwashing checked before and after.

This trial tests whether using virtual reality can help students keep up good handwashing habits. It's for Hong Kong junior secondary students who want to learn and practice better hand hygiene.
This study tests a special fluorescent gel to help nursing students see how well they wash their hands. It aims to improve hand-cleaning habits, which can reduce the spread of infections.
This study tests whether a new teaching method called 'flipped learning' helps nursing students learn proper surgical handwashing better than traditional teaching. You would complete training, tests, and follow-up assessments over a few months.
This trial tests whether using augmented reality (a technology that adds digital information to what you see) can help nurses learn how to manage cancerous wounds that have a bad odor or discharge. If you are an oncology nurse at a teaching hospital in northern Taiwan, you may be able to join and learn new ways to care for these wounds.
This study tests whether a personal hand-hygiene system helps reduce germs spreading during surgery. It involves adults having certain types of surgeries and the anesthesia team caring for them.
