Introduction: Hand hygiene is one of the most critical practices for preventing healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) and ensuring patient safety. With growing global health challenges, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, the emphasis on hand hygiene has significantly intensified. This systematic review aims to evaluate the impact of hand hygiene practices on patient safety by reviewing studies published from 2020 onward. Methods: A systematic search was conducted in databases such as PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar using keywords like "hand hygiene," "patient safety," and "infection control." Studies published between 2020 and 2024 examining the relationship between hand hygiene practices and patient safety outcomes were included in this review. Inclusion criteria were English-language studies focusing on the effects of hand hygiene on reducing HAIs and improving patient safety. Findings: Among the reviewed articles, 18 studies met the inclusion criteria. Most studies confirmed that proper hand hygiene significantly reduces healthcare-associated infections, especially in intensive care units and surgical wards. One study indicated that implementing hand hygiene protocols reduced hospital-associated infections by 30%. Additionally, adherence to the World Health Organization's "Five Moments for Hand Hygiene" framework was associated with improved patient outcomes and reduced healthcare costs. Conclusion: Hand hygiene remains a fundamental principle in infection control, with a direct correlation to enhanced patient safety. The reviewed studies show that consistent adherence to hand hygiene practices leads to a significant decrease in HAIs and an improvement in overall patient safety in healthcare settings. Future efforts should focus on strengthening hand hygiene education and compliance among healthcare workers to ensure sustained improvements.
