There is so diversity in that technology of addressing the hand hygiene problem. One of old method was the human observers that are situated at hand washing areas for observation of properly being washed. It is impossible to situate observers in all kinds of such places as some people swab their hand more properly when they are being watched.

The possible solution for this is a device named IntelligentM.
An IntelligentM bracelet can be wear by any person in a sickbay such as it can be used by nurses, doctors, workers, technicians and all other members that are intact with patients. The device possesses accelerometer connected with a microprocessor. The function of accelerometer is to detect hands movement and also application of hand sanitizer during washing.

IntelligentM wristlet consists of RFID tags located on it where washing or sanitization is required. If a person did not cleanse his or her hand for long interval or proper specified time then the buzzer beeps three times or once a time if a person washed hand properly. In addition to this it tells the record of a person washing procedure. If a person did not sluice hand appropriately then an administrator can check every person records for inspecting their hygiene where he or she had done infringement. It also provides time and location where lapses have been done.


According to MIT report that technology has been used in a hospital of Sarsota, Florida since last December and two more clients from the same state has adopted that device.
