Introduction
Multiple studies have shown that high-touch surfaces such as bed rails, the tops of bed tables, and supply carts play a role in the transmission of pathogens to susceptible patients and that there are gaps in current cleaning practices. While there are no validated studies proving the value of daily cleaning/disinfection in aiding infection prevention for patients, there are trends towards increased use of disinfectants in many areas of Healthcare. Hydrogen peroxide disinfectants are being increasingly evaluated in Europe due to their superior efficacy, safety, cleaning and sustainability profiles.
