Thus the disinfection of hands is a most important procedure for preventing nosocomial infection. In any intensive care units ICUs the disinfection of hands is particularly important because the patient in ICUs are seriously ill and with immunologically compromised conditions such as post-organ transplantation severe infection and immunodeficiency syndrome 2 5 . Increased chances of contact with patients by medical staff for various treatments further increases the risk of hand-transmitted nosocomial infection 2 5 . Therefore implementation of an effective hand-disinfection system should be required in ICUs. Recently we have developed a flow-water hand-disinfection system using electrolytic products of sodium chloride the flow-water plus electrolyte FWE and reported its effective bactericidal and antiseptic performance in vitro 6 . This FWE system produces large amounts of antiseptic solution on use resulting from the electrolysis of saline containing hypochlorite and active oxygen both of which play a part in the solution s antiseptic effects 6 . In this preliminary report we evaluated the antiseptic effects of the system as used by the medical staff in the ICU and compared its antiseptic effects with those of a conventional hand-disinfection method application of alcohol lotion after hand-washing with soap. Forty members of the medical .
