The HandInScan Technology is the only quality-assured system focusing on hand disinfection quality control that can objectively determine hand hygiene effectiveness. The system is designed to teach and verify if protocols are followed properly.

Among them healthcare associated infections affect 2-3% of the patients which can be significantly reduced with proper hand washing compliance and technique following the WHO guidelines. HandInScan brings that much needed hand hygiene education and control to an everyday practice integrating with the hospital's quality control system.
Dr. Jun Ren, CEO of Shanghai Newsummit Biopharma, said "We are proud to form an alliance with HandinScan, since their technology can deliver an effective solution to healthcare organisations. The technology is now utilized in over 20 countries worldwide, and healthcare organizations implementing the HandInScan technology are seeing the effect of patient safety and provider benefits that the system can deliver. We believe the healthcare system in China and Chinese patients can also benefit from this innovation."
