  • Analysis of theses and dissertations on hand hygiene in Brazil: a bibliometric study Adriely de Abreu Varoto Fabiana Guerra Pimenta Anna Klara Sá Teles Rocha Alves Hoberdan Oliveira Pereira André Luiz Silva Alvim Salud Nursing Patient Safety Health Education Health Personnel Hand Disinfection Background and Objectives: in relation to hand hygiene, it is important to highlight the absence of documented investigations in the scientific literature that address the analysis of theses and dissertations related to this practice. This gap justifies the carrying out of this study, which aims to strengthen and expand the knowledge base related to this topic, highlighting its relevance in the areas of teaching, research, extension and innovation. The objective was to analyze theses and dissertations published in stricto sensu graduate programs on hand hygiene practices in Brazil. Methods: this is a bibliometric study conducted in the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel Theesis and Dissertation Catalog, considering the period from 2013 to 2022. Results: thirty-one (100%) studies were included, 21 (67.7%) dissertations and six (19.3%) theses. Nursing was the main area of assessment (65.6%), which mainly analyzed adherence to hand hygiene practices (29.0%), health education (12.9%), and carried out microbiological analysis of hands (12.9%). Only three publications used theoretical bases as the central core of the research. Conclusion: this study allowed us to identify the need to study the topic at doctoral level, using theoretical bases that will provide the conceptual and philosophical foundation for clinical practice. 2023 artículo científico 2238-3360 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=570476729007 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5704/570476729007/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5704/570476729007/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5704/570476729007/570476729007.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5704/570476729007/movil https://doi.org/10.17058/reci.v13i3.18709 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=5704 Revista de Epidemiologia e Controle de Infecção application/pdf Universidade de Santa Cruz do Sul Revista de Epidemiologia e Controle de Infecção (Brasil) Num.3 Vol.13
