Abstract:
A system and method for detecting hand hygiene compliance is disclosed. Hand hygiene is important in various contexts, including hospital settings, home settings, work settings, and school settings. For example, a healthcare provider may wear a wristband, which may interact with a stationary controller that is integrated with or proximate to a hand cleaning agent dispenser. The interaction may be used to determine whether the healthcare provider has complied with hand hygiene protocols. Further, the wristband may be used to train healthcare providers or others (such as children) in proper hand hygiene. Further, the wristband may be used in other contexts, such as integrating hand hygiene monitoring and access control. Also, monitoring people when performing tasks, such as hygiene tasks, cooking, and moving about, may be beneficial to those with cognitive difficulties, such as dementia. A device for detecting the tasks being performed and providing reminders to the people regarding the tasks may help those with dementia.

Claim (Index 18):
A mobile wearable electronic device comprising:\n at least one mechanical structure configured for attachment onto at least a part of a body of a person; communication functionality configured to communicate with a hand hygiene external electronic device; one or more motion sensors configured to generate sensor data indicative of hand movement of the person; a radio frequency identification (RFID) tag configured to communicate with an external RFID reader; and a controller in communication with the communication functionality and the one or more sensors, the controller configured to:\n store the sensor data generated by the one or more motion sensors in order to determine compliance or non-compliance of the hand movement of the person with regard to a hand hygiene event.
