Method of analyzing industrial food products, cosmetics, and/or hygiene products, a measurement interface for implementing the method, and an electronic system for implementing the interface

The invention seeks to improve the taking of physical measurements on an industrial product represented by organoleptic perceptions, the method providing a measurement interface that submits descriptors in a relative arrangement such that testers are not influenced by the order in which they appear, regardless of the descriptor and regardless of the field of the descriptor. For this purpose, the invention provides a method of analyzing industrial products in order to characterize them, in order to distinguish between them, and / or in order to modify them so as to improve them, by analyzing the responses of a panel of testers in application of certain descriptors. The method comprises steps consisting in selecting descriptors that are a priori pertinent for determining the organoleptic characteristics of the products; selecting a response mode; providing all of the descriptors simultaneously to the panel of testers on a single occasion and for a determined duration in a measurement interface presenting a center and an input zone for each descriptor, the input zones being distributed uniformly over at least a section of at least one conic about the center of the interface; collecting the responses from each tester as a function of the selected response mode; recording the responses; and analyzing the responses using at least one statistical method.

Method for assessing improvement in hand hygiene practices

A method for assessing improvement in hand hygiene practices using sanitation solution dispensers deployed within particular areas of interest in a healthcare facility or the like. Each of the dispensers has a counter associated therewith, with the counter producing a count indicative of actual events of a healthcare worker sanitizing his / her hands. Other data is acquired that impacts the number of anticipated hand sanitation events in this particular area of interest. From this data, a number of anticipated hand sanitation events is determined. Finally, a determination is made, from information obtained through actual observation, of the number of opportunities that healthcare workers will have for hand sanitation in the area of interest over a particular period of time. A performance index, indicative of compliance with hand hygiene protocol, is then obtained by dividing the difference between the actual number of hand sanitizing events and the number of anticipated hand hygiene events by the number of opportunities for such hand hygiene events. This index may then be used to gauge improvement or regression in hand hygiene practices in an area of interest, or to measure the effectiveness of intervention programs, or to compare performance between various areas of interest.
