  • Safety of hand disinfectants: a systematic review

    ObjectiveTo systematically review the safety of hand disinfectants. MethodsPubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, INAHTA, WanFang Data, CNKI and VIP databases were electronically searched to collect studies on the safety of hand disinfectants from inception to February 1st, 2021. Two reviewers independently screened the literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies; then, a systematic review was conducted. ResultsA total of 50 studies were included. The reported adverse events were eye and nasal mucosal irritation, hand adverse events with skin itching, rash, erythema, edema and so on. A total of 29 brands such as 3M Avagard and 26 ingredients such as ethanol were reported to be related to the above adverse events. Hand disinfectants containing glycerin, silicone oil, vitamin B, plant extracts and other emollients could reduce the incidence of adverse events. ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that hand disinfectants containing emollients and free from ethanol, chlorhexidine and other ingredients are related to fewer adverse events. Due to the limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high-quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
