چکیده   

background and objectives: infection is the most common cause of death among burnt patients and infection control decrease the rate of mortality. the use of sticky mat can control contamination by preventing the entrance microorganisms into the hospital wards. this study was designed to evaluate the sticky mats effect in reduction of microorganism’s entry by personnel shoes to burn intensive care unit (bicu).

materials and methods: this is a simple cross sectional study. we tested outer soles of personnel’s shoes with swap and cultured them before and after sticky mat contact in the entrance of bicu. results were analyzed with ibm spss version 22 software. mcnemar and wilcoxon signed ranks tests were used.

results: we analyzed 60 outer soles of the shoes before and after contact with sticky mats. coagulase negative staphylococci, gram positive bacilli, staphylococcus aureus, aspergillus fumigatus, pseudomonas aeruginosa and acinetobacter baumannii were isolated before contact from 57 ( 95%), 32 ( 53%), 4 (6.7%) and 3 (5%) cases, respectively. coagulase negative staphylococci, gram positive bacilli, staphylococcus aureus, aspergillus fumigatus, pseudomonas aeruginosa were isolated after contact from 36 (60%), 30 (50%), 16 (26.6%), 2 (3.3%) and 3 (5%) cases, respectively. no acinetobacter was isolated after contact with sticky mat. total isolated colonies before and after contact with sticky mats were 2573 and 830, respectively. there were significant statistically differences between the colony counts of coagulase ngative staphylococci, gram positive bacilli, and staphylococci aureus before and after contact with sticky mats (p. < 0.001).

conclusion: regarding to statistical analysis, the effect of mat in removing the microorganisms was 56%. it confirms the effectiveness of sticky mat controlling the infection and reducing the amount of hospital contamination.
