NCT ID: NCT00963391 Completed - Clinical trials for Acute Respiratory Infection

"Alcohol Based Hand Sanitizers for the Prevention of Acute Diarrheal Disease and Acute Respiratory Infection in Children Under 5 Attending Childcare Centers in Bogotá, Cundinamarca and Tolima, in Colombia: a Cluster Randomized Control Trial"

Start date: February 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to conduct a Randomized Control Trial (RCT) in a developing country setting in order to evaluate the role of alcohol based hand sanitizers (ABHS) in preventing the transmission of infectious diseases in areas where water is a scarce resource.
