Multicenter Study Observational StudyObservations of infection prevention and control practices in primary health care, Kenya.
To assess compliance with infection prevention and control practices in primary health care in Kenya. ⋯ The observational tool was effective for assessing compliance with infection prevention and control practices across multiple domains in primary health care in a low-income country. Compliance varied widely across infection prevention and control domains. The weak associations observed between compliance and the characteristics of health-care workers and facilities, such as knowledge and the availability of supplies, suggest that a broader focus on behavioural change is required.
