Geographical representation of average hand hygiene performances in countries participating in the global Hand Hygiene Excellence award in Asia-Pacific and Latin America. Each country is coloured according to the arithmetic mean of the hand hygiene compliance (a), total HHSAF scores (b), ABHR consumption (c) and ABHR consumption trend coefficients (d), of the respective hospitals participating in the HHEAs. This map considers 2012–2021 data for hand hygiene compliance and ABHR consumption, and 2017–2023 data for HHSAF scores. Mollweide’s projection was used to build the maps.
