Hyginex was created after the founder, Efrat Raichman, lost a loved one to a healthcare associated infection (HAI). After doing more research, she found that poor hand hygiene is the main cause of HAIs. Hyginex uses patented hand hygiene improvement technology, notably smart wristbands, to help modify staff behaviour and create stronger hand hygiene cultures. The wristbands interact with sensors to collect data on both duration and frequency of hand hygiene events, and the bands give real-time feedback to staff when they forget to sanitise hands before and after touching patients.
