The Trial

Page 5 11/23/2016

  • Two wards next to each other, of the same number of beds.
  • One ward using the existing drinking glasses
  • The other with the new improved drinking glasses.
  • Water given and was measured on both wards over 9 days
  • The water being thrown out from the jugs during the handover

period was measured

  • The amount assumed to be consumed was then calculated

The drawback

  • Turnover in the wards is great so on an individual level we

could not assume to capture individual data.

  • However we were able to see the total amount given to patients
  • ver that 9 day period.
