The only solution to measure hand hygiene according to your existing guidelines.
Developed and trusted by hospitals around Europe
How it works
+
Record
A sensor is installed on your existing dispenser solution from where it registers each sanitation and provide positive feedback when used.
+
Detect
The Sani ID is permanently attached to existing name tags, from where it collects and shares each hand hygiene opportunity anonymously.
+
Interaction
The Sani sensor is placed above the patient beds and creates an invisible zone that identifies patient contact according to WHOs guidelines.
Our Story
Anne-Mette Iversen, a clinical nurse specialist at Aarhus University Hospital in Denmark had tried to improve the hospital’s hand hygiene compliance using flyers, stickers, training and posters, nothing had worked. The flyers piled up in the staff desk drawers and her team forgot their training after just few weeks. She knew that the direct methods of observation for compliance were impacted by the “Hawthorne Effect” which made her unable to prove the impact of her team’s improvement work. The hand hygiene compliance data was unreliable, and this made her unable to understand the possible risk of infections that was placed on the patients. This frustration created sani nudge.
sani nudge is committed to cutting-edge research conducted with integrity as a way to continuously improve our solution. The hand hygiene compliance data is clinically validated and backed by several healthcare institutions around Europe to comply with the five moments for hand hygiene by WHO.
With several publications in journals such as American Journal of Infection Control (ajic) you can trust the data the system provides.
Insight into hand hygiene compliance like never seen before. Digital solutions to host weekly hand hygiene meetings with the wards, understand the division of compliance in the teams, enable each individual to anonymously access their own data and nudge wards to improve.

Hand hygiene compliance is one of the most critical measures in healthcare for patient safety. Accurate reporting of compliance and activating improvement work around this have been proven in hundreds of peer-reviewed articles to positively impact the number of healthcare acquired infections.
In 2015, in order to get data and improve hand hygiene compliance in her hospital, Iversen mobilized a team led by engineers, clinical professionals and behaviour scientists to design the first version of Sani nudge. The system was able to unobtrusively monitor hand hygiene compliance before and after patient contact. The data was used to design a nudging method to positively reinforce good hand hygiene behaviour of staff. Together with another hospital the system was tested and modified to provide validated data and to prove lasting improvement on hand hygiene compliance.
In 2018, the system was ready to be used in other hospitals and the solution was named Sani nudge. The system has since proven to sustainably triple compliance scores for thousands of healthcare workers, at a low cost to the hospital and without impacting the workflow of the staff.
