CONCLUSION
In the light of these findings, it is important that mobile phone use
should be regulated and cleanliness should not be neglected in areas
with a high risk of infection in the hospital. Hand hygiene is one of
the basic factors in the prevention of hospital infections15. Hand hygiene must be definitely ensured after the
use of a mobile phone and before contact with the patient. In addition
to appropriate hand hygiene, it is important to determine the healthcare
providers with S. aureus nasal carriage, to treat the carriage
and to pay attention to the use of shared devices to prevent
hospital-acquired infections.
