ABSTRACT

The battle against COVID19 is still ongoing. Countries were forced to

imposed lockdowns, making the transition of universities to blended learning. Cebu
Technological University have implemented its Flexible Learning System (FLS) and
Learning Management System (LMS) to pursue that education never stops. This
study aimed to innovate a sanitation system for the upcoming traditional learning
set-up of CTU Danao Campus. As a form of Non-pharmaceutical Intervention in
dealing against COVID19. The researchers utilized quantitative and qualitative
research applying descriptive method with a self-made questionnaire to determine
the problems encountered, dimensions quality, product acceptability, and
perception of the Innovative Hand Sanitizer Dispenser with Fogging System. The
forty (40) selected students, faculty and staff from the College of Technology were
the respondents. The findings revealed with a verbal description of “Strongly Agree”
that the respondents found the manual sanitation as inconvenient, touching the
container may spread the Virus, manual button may loose overtime, and is time
consuming. The data revealed the analysis of variance (ANOVA) of performa nce
having the P-value of 0.75, features having the P-value of 0.92, and perceived
quality of the product having the P-value of 0.79, apprehending it is greater than
0.05 and that there is no significant difference among the rate given by the
respondents as to the performance, features and perceived quality of the product.
The data revealed the analysis of variance (ANOVA) of the perceived ease of use
having the P-value of 0.92, and perceived usefulness having the P-value of 0.46,
apprehending it is greater than 0.05 and that there is no significant difference among
the rate given by the respondents as to the products perceived ease of use and
perceived usefulness. The inputs of the perception gathered positive attitude to

THE PROBLEM AND ITS SCOPE

INTRODUCTION

Rationale

Hand hygiene has been practiced to battle the spread of COVID-19, coupled

with disinfection through fogging or misting systems will give additional safety

measures against this disease. A fogging or misting chamber can also be used in

places of large public gatherings such as schools as an additional measure to help

reduce risk of recurring outbreaks as countries look to end lockdowns and resume

face to face learning set-up.

Many public areas, including airports, industries, railway stations, hotels,

banks, supermarkets, college campuses, malls, wedding halls, and religious

gatherings, have begun to utilize this technology to disinfect arriving people. A

specific pupil entering the tube requires less than twelve seconds to be fully free of

infection. The average person traveling through the chamber absorbs 0.64 liters of

chemical combination in the form of external spray mist. Chemicals such as

hypochlorite were utilized in varied concentrations ranging from 0.02 percent to 0.05

percent by weight (Khan et al., 2020).

Hand sanitizers are products that are applied to the hands and massaged to

kill harmful bacteria. These items are meant to dry quickly after use, without the

need for soap, water, and drying aids like towels. Hand sanitizers' simplicity and
 2

portability have led to their widespread use in 2020, when the World Health

Organization (WHO) advised an alternate hand hygiene strategy. Alcohol-based

hand sanitizers have become a critical tool in the battle against SARS-CoV-2, the

virus that caused coronavirus illness 2019 (COVID-19). The illness has spread

rapidly over the world, demanding strict precautions and regulations to prevent it

from spreading further. Hand hygiene is one of the most important strategies that

have been promoted. In this case, alcohol and hand sanitizers are essential fluids

and they must be used correctly (Edozie et al., 2020).

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in the United States

has promoted and supported hand cleanliness through handwashing or the use of

hand sanitizer because of the disease's hazards. Hand disinfectants come in a

variety of sorts and formats on the market, including antimicrobial soaps. Water-

based or alcohol-based hand sanitizers are the most commonly used in hospitals.

Different forms of delivery techniques, such as rubs, foams, and wipes, are also

developed. Alcohol-based hand sanitizers (ABHS) are recommended by the World

Health Organization (WHO) because of their demonstrated benefits of quick action

and a broad spectrum of microbicidal activity that protects against germs and

viruses. The effectiveness against non-enveloped viruses, on the other hand, is still

uncertain (McCarthy et al., 2020).

In Nueva Ecija, Philippines, top universities have made efforts to comply with

protocols to ensure the protection and security of all stakeholders in this time of

crisis by making facilities and equipment available for use. According to the Centers

for Disease Control and Prevention (2020), everyone can help stop COVID–19 by
 3

knowing the signs and symptoms. That is why every organization is advised to have

print materials to inform the public about the signs, symptoms, prevention, and other

related information about the disease. Likewise, they strongly agreed that there are

hand sanitizers (minimum 70% alcohol) in multiple locations to encourage hand

hygiene by both employees and clients to supplement hand washing. Employees

use their hands to write reports, open doors, and undertake a variety of other tasks

during the day, all of which expose hands to hazardous germs and bacteria. So, it

can be concluded that the best strategy to encourage staff to use hand sanitizer is

to keep it readily available and visible (Mina et al., 2020).

As Cebu Technological University – Danao Campus enters the new normal,

precautions would still be observed to further maintain and prevent the spread of

the Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). As a premier university the institution

would also lead the way to fight the spread of this disease that brought health

disaster all over the world. As Cebu Technological University Danao Campus

College of Technology aims to produce technological research towards innovation

and advancement, this safety measure technology of innovative hand sanitizer with

fogging system would contribute to the primary prevention of the disease. This

technology will provide necessary sanitation for students, instructors, personnel and

officials of CTU Danao as they enter and start their work at the Computer

Laboratory. This technology comprises disinfection, moisturization and protection

assembled in one product. This innovation brings convenience as it sanitizes without

the hassle of touching any alcohol containers and disinfects through its fogging

system. This primary sanitation system will make the Unified Computer Laboratory
 4

of CTU – Danao Campus College of Technology COVID-19 resilient as the

university will engage in a limited face to face learning setup, and as part of its quality

policy, safety will always be at its top priority.

Theoretical Background

In 1966, hand sanitizers came into existence in healthcare facilities and were

popularized significantly in the early 1990s. Hand sanitizers can be classified as

alcohol-based or alcohol-free. According to the World Health Organization (WHO)

alcohol sanitizers are designed for application to the hands to inactivate

microorganisms to suppress their growth (Singh et al., 2020). The pandemic caused

an unprecedented health and economic crisis. With the advancing technology in

automation, this situation is making our transition to digital solutions. As the virus

reaches global scale, health experts advise the practice of hand hygiene, which

leads to embrace new innovations and technologies that help reduce the

transmission of COVID-19.

This paper provides comprehension of the Technology Adoption Theory and

Acceptance Model, Technology Diffusion Theory, and Dimensions of Quality by

Garvin. The following theories are pertinent to the study about the automatic hand

sanitizer dispenser with fogging system together with the guidelines as legal bases

mandated by the Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) and the World Health

Organization (WHO), as reliable and innovative automatic hand sanitizer dispenser

with fogging system.

 5

Technology Adoption

COVID-19 pandemic has made the development of technologies to tackle

the spread of the virus. Several interventions have been deployed to reduce the

health crisis impact of the pandemic and observe preventive measures. Demand for

hand sanitizers surged as the coronavirus broke out and spread around the world.

Hand sanitizers are usually used by applying the sanitizer liquid when pressing a

pump with the hand. The pandemic emphasizes the need for cleanliness of hands

and surfaces.

The usage of automatic dispenser sanitizer is ultimately expected to

contribute to contactless hand disinfection. Additionally, it is economical and eco-

friendly by decreasing waste emissions of water (Kim, 2020). With the advanced

and dynamic growth of technologies, how fast the consumers are accepting these

technologies depends on a number of factors such as availability of technology,

convenience, consumers’ need, and security (Lai, 2017). Mankind has grown to a

tremendous level where technological advancements have emerged significantly.

New technologies are invented every time to provide comfort and convenience to

the people, however not everyone will adopt that technology instantly. Technology

adoption refers to the stage in which an innovation is accepted by an individual or a

group of people and decides to utilize the technology and use its potential benefits.

The technologically adopted innovative hand sanitizer dispenser with a

fogging system can provide protection from the virus and convenience to the people

especially for the students and teachers of Cebu Technological University - Danao

Campus which are mainly the end user of this innovative technology. With COVID-
 6

19 pandemic, the use of innovative hand sanitizer with a fogging system will provide

the necessary sanitation for students, teachers and personnel of the computer

laboratory. The need to adopt this innovation is for the continuous precaution to

prevent the spread of the virus.

The study corresponds to the first model of technology acceptance by which

the perceived ease of use and the perceived usefulness are evident. The fact that

the technology is easy to use, convenient, and is very important during this time of

pandemic could greatly result in a positive attitude from the end user. Considered

that the technology causes an optimistic result and the probability of acceptance is

high making the actual use of the technology transpires.

Technology Diffusion

Technology diffusion is broadly characterized as the process through which

a new technology's market evolves over time, resulting in new product and process

production and usage patterns (Stoneman & Battisti, 2010). The nature and quality

of the innovation, how information about the innovation is disseminated, and the

characteristics of the population into which it is introduced are all elements of

diffusion. The significance of new technologies reflects the fact that they have a wide

range of consumers and applications, as well as geographic regions. Long-term

growth requires the diffusion of technological improvements across producers within

a country and across international borders (Stokey, 2021).

With the birth of new technologies, people tend to observe whether these

technologies can be trusted. At the observation stage, people will see if the

innovation is safe and decide if they need that technology for use, and then the

diffusion happens. The need to use this technology of innovative hand sanitizer to a

wide range of consumers and promote its widespread use contributes to the

prevention of the virus.

 8

The theory of Technology diffusion relates to innovative hand sanitizer

dispenser with a fogging system when people have adopted to the innovation by the

reasons brought by technology as it provides convenience, protection, and reliance.

When an innovation has been fully adopted, it would be easier to spread within the

society as to which this study is all about. The familiarity of the technology can be

considered as to why this research correlates with the theory of diffusion.

Dimensions of Quality

A quality product is one that meets or exceeds the consumers' expectations.

It is a tactical tool that can be used as a framework to analyze the characteristics

and quality of the product. The eight quality aspects help producers or the innovators

in meeting these demands. It's a strategic management tool. They are used to

analyze quality attributes as a framework. Performance, features, reliability,

conformance, durability, serviceability, aesthetics, and perceived quality are the

eight critical dimensions or categories of quality that Garvin presents as a framework

for strategic analysis.

The eight dimensions of quality provide implications on how the Innovative

Hand Sanitizer Dispenser with Fogging System can be further improved and

innovated for the good of its end users. With the ideas presented in the theory, the

researchers can draw out further objectives and aim in enhancement to meet

expectations for the product, as to performance, features, reliability, conformance,

durability, serviceability, aesthetics, and perceived quality.

The eight dimensions of quality refers to the heightening of the standard and

the efficiency of the product. Innovative Hand Sanitizer Dispenser with Fogging
 9

System must possess a unique feature, that is automated, and include attribute

among the eight dimensions in order to produce quality product. As the university

utilizes this technology it would contribute to the precautions aimed in this study for

the primary sanitation against the virus.

With the theories that correlate to the Innovative Hand Sanitizer Dispenser

with Fogging System, it imparts the development of the technology. With the

principles and ideas of the mentioned theories, the researchers are able to realize

this innovation.

Legal Basis

IATF Guideline

The Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious

Diseases (IATF – EID) was established through the Executive Order No. 168,

s.2014 in pursuance to the constitutional policy enshrined in Article II, Section 15 of

the 1987 Philippine Constitution, which provides that the State shall protect and

promote the right to health of the people and impart health consciousness among

them. Upon the start of this global pandemic, the IATF, under the directive of the

Office of the President, had imposed restrictions to minimize the number of positive

cases of Covid-19.

According to the IATF Resolution No. 23, series of 2020, Recommendations

Relative to the Management of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID -19)

Situation, whereas, on March 8, 2020, recognizing that the Coronavirus disease

2019 (COVID-19) pandemic requires the mobilization of a whole-of-government

 10

response, President Rodrigo Roa Duterte declared a State of Public Health

Emergency in the entire Philippines through Proclamation No. 922.

Under the Omnibus Guidelines on the Implementation of Community

Quarantine in the Philippines with Amendments as of June 3, 2020. Whereas, Article

II, Section 15, of the 1987 Constitution provides that the State shall protect and

promote the right to health of the people and instill health consciousness among

them. Within this resolution, it discusses the minimum public health standards that

refers to the guidelines set by the DOH under Administrative Order No. 2020-0015,

as well as sector-relevant guidelines issued by national government agencies

authorized by the IATF, to aid all sectors in all settings to implement non-

pharmaceutical interventions (NPI), which refers to the public health measures that

do not involve vaccines, medications or other pharmaceutical inter ventions, which

individuals and communities can carry out in order to reduce transmission rates,

contact rates, and the duration of infectiousness of individuals in the population to

mitigate COVID-19.

The Department of Health has also imposed and declared the Department

Memorandum No. 2020-0157 which refers to the guidelines on cleaning and

disinfection in various settings as an infection prevention and control measure

against COVID-19. In this memorandum, it discusses that the Department of Health

(DOH) issued interim guidelines to public and private offices, homes and individuals

on the use of chemical disinfectant such as sodium or calcium hypochlorite solution

for infection prevention and control against the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID -

19).
 11

The Department memorandum also tackles the use of disinfection

tents/misting chambers. The US Center for Disease Control (CDC) reported the lack

of microbial efficacy in the use of disinfectants but also has unfavorable health

effects where these methods were utilized. With imposing misting tents for people

who don’t wear PPE and are in their regular clothes, the safety of the chemical

disinfectant used and the efficacy of the chemical disinfectant should be gravely

taken into great consideration.

WHO Guideline

The World Health Organization (WHO) is a specialized health agency created

in 1948 to coordinate health affairs within the United Nations system with 194-

member states. At first, it worked with member countries to identify and address

public health issues, support health research and issue guidelines. A WHO guideline

is defined broadly as any information product developed by WHO that contains

recommendations for clinical practice or public health policy. The Guidelines Review

Committee ensures that WHO guidelines are of a high methodological quality and

are developed through a transparent, evidence-based decision-making process.

The World Health Organization, during this time of Covid-19 Pandemic,

released guidelines in safeguarding the citizens. As of March 25, 2022, WHO South-

East Asia Region (SEAR) remains the third most affected WHO Region with 56.8

million cases reported cumulatively, after the European Region (195.5 million cases)

and the American Region (149.9 million cases).

 12

WHO’s latest global survey on implementation of national infection

prevention and control programmes highlights the urgent need to reduce inequalities

in the availability of good hand hygiene and other infection prevention and control

measures between high- and lower-income countries. This is a serious challenge at

any time, but COVID-19 has dramatically demonstrated just how important good

hand hygiene practices are in reducing the risk of transmission when used as part

of a comprehensive package of preventative measures.

In December 11, 2020, WHO provided a checklist to support schools

reopening and preparation for COVID-19 resurgences or similar public health crises.

The checklist is aligned with, and builds upon, existing COVID -19-related WHO

guidelines and is structured around protective measures related to:

1) hand hygiene and respiratory etiquette;

2) physical distancing;

3) use of masks in schools;

4) environmental cleaning and ventilation; and

5) respecting procedures for isolation of all people with symptoms.

The checklist is designed to support policy-makers, staff and officials from

the education and health sectors, local authorities, school principals/leaders and

administrators, teachers’ unions, community leaders, parents and caregivers.

 13

In accordance to IATF and WHO’s guidelines for the reopening of traditional

learning set-up, specifically the automated sanitation, our applied research project,

entitled “Innovative Hand Sanitizer Dispenser with Fogging System” aids the

school’s computer laboratory in maintaining the safety while providing comfort for

the students to learn as the university enters to the new normal learning set-up.

Chapter 2

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES

Related Literature

The following segment reviews some articles that relate to the innovative

hand sanitizer dispenser with a fogging system.

The COVID-19 pandemic has made a significant impact on how people

around the world live their daily lives. As of August 2020, the virus has infected more

than 20 million people and caused over 750,000 deaths (Johns Hopkins University,

2020). When outbreaks of viral pandemics such as the coronavirus occur, medical

interventions for individuals and facilities are critical to allow humans to continue

their basic ways of life and to allow citizens to interact safely and continuously in

society. Disinfection technologies and their availability are very useful in gatherings,

and the efficacy of their functions are all significant tools for preventing the

transmission of diseases and epidemics and allowing communities to operate in a

more natural manner. Despite the e ffectiveness of traditional surface disinfection

procedures, modern technology has proven to be an emerging innovation for virus

protection (Kchaou et al., 2020).

Hands are considered to be the primary mode of infectious diseases,

especially for those living in close proximity such as college residence halls,

shopping malls, bank halls, market areas and among others because of the frequent

contact with hands and multiple surfaces, the incidence of cross-contamination is

significantly high. Hand hygiene is a major requirement for human health and many
 20

infectious diseases can emerge if proper hand hygiene procedures are not

implemented. Hand washing is the simplest, important and cost -effective way to

improve hand hygiene in health care and support the prevention of infectious

disease (Edozie et al., 2020).

Hand sanitizers usually operate by using sanitizer liquid when one presses a

pump with one’s hand. On the market, some hand sanitizers are automatically

pumped. Sanitizer containers and pump devices, on the other hand, are only meant

to work with other items from the same manufacturer. To address this issue,

researchers created an automatic hand sanitizer system that can be used in a

variety of containers. It is possible to avoid many people coming into co ntact with

the pump handle using the suggested device, preventing viral transmission and

making hand sanitizer use considerably more convenient. Furthermore, the system

dispenses a consistent amount of hand sanitizer at all times, making refills and

replacements simple. It can also work with a variety of sanitizer containers, so

customers won't have to buy a new container for the liquid if they replace their hand

sanitizer. As a result, it is both cost-effective and environmentally friendly, as waste

emissions are reduced. This paper's proposed automatic hand sanitizer device is

projected to contribute to contactless hand disinfection in public spaces and virus

infection prevention in the long term (Lee et al., 2020).

The use of a contactless automatic hand wash dispenser for sanitation is both

efficient and cost-effective. It functions similarly to a standard contactless automated

machine. The individual is given a limited amount of sanitizer liquid to keep in their

hands for sanitation, to wash their hands, and to protect themselves from the corona
 21

disease. This technique can be used in malls and other densely trafficked areas.

When considering the system's and project's life cycles, the project's economic cost

will be higher (Srihari, 2020).

Maintaining good hand hygiene with alcohol-based sanitizers, as one of the

most important individual preventive measures, can effectively reduce the spread of

the virus, necessitating the scalable deployment of sanitizer stations in public

spaces such as hospitals, shopping malls, office buildings, and university

campuses. However, installing a large number of sanitizer stations throughout a vast

region and in numerous buildings complicates facilities management. Sanitizer

dispensers, in particular, should be replaced as soon as they run out to ensure that

they are accessible when needed. In this regard, the facilities operations team

should be able to monitor sanitizer station usage; and ensure that sanitizer stations

are properly maintained; readily identify the locations and number of sanitizer

stations that need refilling; and generate the schedule and route for maintaining the

sanitizer stations accordingly. Develop a timetable and route for maintaining the

sanitizer stations based on the locations and quantity of sanitizer stations that need

to be refilled. These criteria highlight the necessity for automated sanitizer station

usage tracking across a vast geographic area (Zhao et al., 2021).

Alcohol-based hand sanitizers are widely available in healthcare settings,

according to World Health Organization and Centers for Disease Control guidelines

for hand hygiene. Patients with alcohol dependence may be tempted to consume

ethanol-based hand sanitizers due to their accessibility and presence in the

emergency department (ED). Although hand sanitizer ingestion by children and

 22

teenagers has received media attention and has been discussed in the literature,

researchers present a case in which an adult patient who requested to be

transferred to a detoxification program while in the ED inadvertently ingested hand

sanitizer while under clinical supervision (Pourman et al., 2021).

Sanitizing chamber is operated by pumping disinfection fluids through the

misting nozzles to produce fine mists within the enclosed chamber. One person at

a time enters the chamber from one side and stands under the sanitizing mist. After

spending a certain period of time in the chamber, and making a few rotations to

ensure full coverage of sanitation, the person exits the chamber from the other side

(Abu-zidan et al., 2020). The other ARCI system is a fogging unit based on

hypochlorous acid (HOCl), which is a chemical disinfectant, antimicrobial, and

virucidal agent. This is to clean areas where there is a lot of public mobility and there

is a risk of a pandemic spreading quickly (Sarada et al., 2020).

Related Studies

In a study that was conducted, as the coronavirus spread over the world, the

demand for hand sanitizers increased. Hands are used to push the sanitizing lid on

alcohol-based hand sanitizers. This encourages individuals to contact the cap's

surface, increasing the risk of infection. Many people walk past without cleaning

themselves since pressing the pump handle is a laborious task. Furthermore, each

user pushes the cap in a different way, making it impossible to forecast how much

is used and manage replacement or refilling schedules. Sanitation has been one of

the most important pillars of warfare, and it is the most effective strategy for
 23

preventing the spread of the COVID-19 virus, combined with the usage of face

masks. The majority of contemporary sanitization procedures rely on foot -operated

devices. This necessitates the use of sanitizers and sanitizer dispensers. The

majority of them, however, are not contactless, defeating the goal of sanitizing

several persons (Sharma et al., 2021).

A general improvement in hand hygiene practice resulted in a decrease of

14.8–39.9 illness symptoms among residential students (university). In crowded

environments such as clinics, workplaces, and schools, alcohol-based hand

sanitizer (ABHS) is a beneficial item for preventing the transmission of infectious

viruses. It also aids in the prevention of disease-causing germs and bacteria from

spreading. ABHS considerably decreases bacterial counts on ha nds, according to

early extensive studies on the efficiency of antiseptic hand rubs (White et al., 2003).

Alcohols and other alternative hand sanitizing agents can also make the task done.

The most efficient hand sanitizers are alcohol-based formulations comprising 62%–

95% alcohol, which may eradicate microbial proteins and inactivate viruses, given

the dangers imposed by this disease, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention

(CDC), the United States has promoted and encouraged hand hygiene through

handwashing or use of hand sanitizer (Jia Jing et al., 2020).

The hand sanitizer dispenser plays a significant role to allow individuals to

wash their hands using ABHS while on the go. Another study found that having a

strategically placed hand sanitizer sta tion in a prominent location increased hand

hygiene activity from 1.52% to nearly 60%. To deliver liquid or gaseous sanitizing

agents, a variety of dispensers are available, including mechanical, automated with

 24

pushbuttons, and touchless. Automated dispensers are commonly used in public

areas, including hospitals. But since mechanical dispensers require physical

contact, they are vulnerable to pathogen infection (Fournier et al., 2012).

In another study, fogging technology has been used in the pharmaceutical

and food processing sectors for years to offer whole-room cleaning by dispersing

small particles of liquid sanitizers or disinfectants. The relative humidity, pathogen

kind, and placement of the fogging equipment all have an impact on its

effectiveness. The amount of humidity in the space has an impact on the disinfectant

solution's condensation and its effectiveness. As a result, dehumidification is

occasionally required to achieve adequate disinfection. The majority of published

research focuses on the effectiveness of fogging technology to reduce or eliminate

airborne and fomite contamination in laboratories, the food industry, and hospital

settings. More research is needed to determine how humidity, temperature, and the

type of disinfectant used influence the effectiveness of fogging technology. Uniform

distribution may not be achieved, and differences in airborne concentration may

exist, resulting in insufficient disinfection in some zones, depending on the size of

the space and the volume of disinfectant dispensed (Chen & O’Keeffe, 2020).

COVID-19 is mostly spread by droplets and aerosols, which can stay

infectious on surfaces for days at room temperature. There is no information on

whether coronaviruses may be transmitted from inanimate surfaces to the hands. In

order to meet the requirement for a specific antiviral therapy, it is critical to create

new preventative methods and guarantee that existing ones are profitable, as

evidenced by the field scenario. The emerging coronavirus epidemic has brought
 25

disinfection robots to the forefront of public attention. As a result, a proper

assessment of the profitability of sterilizer's disinfection agents on illnesses is

essential. While the world continues to fight the coronavirus epidemic, several

technologies are developing new ways to attack the virus. To combat the epidemic,

a new generation of health-care systems is being developed. The coronavirus

epidemic has begun. This project successfully designed, developed, and tested a

smart contactless hand sanitizer-dispensing system using IoT-based robotics

technology. This automated sterilizer is equipped with a sensitive infrared sensor.

Once it senses your activity, the water dispenser will automatically deliver sterilized

water, eliminating waste. It can also avoid direct touch and cross-contamination,

which is beneficial. In all public locations, it is regarded as a good hand hygiene

option. Hand disinfection is quick and easy with the contactless hand disinfection

system with an automated sensor, which also avoids cross-contamination (Yusuf et

al., 2020).

The automatic hand sanitizer dispenser is a unique piece of recent

technology. Alcohol based hand sanitizers were invented in the 1960's but gained

widespread popularity in the 1990's when several flu pandemics spread across the

globe. Using infrared motion sensor technology, automatic hand sanitizer

dispensers are able to provide hand hygiene in situations where hand washing is

impractical or unavailable. A 2007 study estimated that in the year 2002, infections

spread at hospitals in the United States caused or contributed to nearly double the

number of deaths caused by AIDS and firearms combined. These infections were

spread mainly through skin to skin contact, primarily because of lapses in hand
 26

hygiene. Using an automatic hand sanitizer dispenser eliminates the need for hand

washing in most cases. Touchless hand sanitizer dispensers can be placed in

virtually any location and easily relocated when needed (Afunlehin & Omolola,

2020).

Research Instrument

To collect the necessary data, purposive sampling technique was used,

researchers utilized a self-made four-part questionnaire to fully determine the

performance and effectiveness of the Innovative Hand Sanitizer Dispenser with

Fogging System. The survey questionnaire used the Likert Scale Method.

The first section inquired about the respondents' demographics. The tool for

profile was made by the researchers; that determined the age, gender, and

employment status if the respondent is a student or staff. The second part allows

the respondent to state the problems they encountered using the manual sanitation.

The third part was the tool that assessed the performance and effectiveness of the

Innovative Hand Sanitizer with Fogging System. In this study, the researchers

utilized and chose which among the eight dimensions of quality by David A. Garvin

that relates to the study, and also serves as a framework for strategic analysis.

Among the eight dimensions of quality, the researchers included performance,

features and perceived quality. Also, the other qualities have been integrated to the

mentioned qualities. This was the evaluation tool that the researchers used to test

out the product. The fourth part was the tool that assessed the product’s

acceptability and overall quality that determined the perception of the respondents.

In preparing the instrument, a requirement in designing a good data collection

was considered. The researchers also regard the anonymities of the respondents,

and the researchers made sure that the questionnaires given to the respondents

were validated by the research adviser.

PRESENTATION, DATA ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION

This chapter interprets, presents and analyzes the data that was surveyed

by the researchers. This shows the information about the respondents’

demographics, experience using the manual sanitation, dimensions of quality and

perception of the respondents as to the product acceptability.

INFORMATION OF THE INNOVATIVE HAND SANITIZER DISPENSER WITH

FOGGING SYSTEM

This part shows the information of the innovative hand sanitizer dispenser

with fogging system as to the respondents’ problems encountered using the manual

sanitation. The dimensions quality as to product’s performance, feat ures and

perceived quality. The product’s acceptability as to its perceived ease of use and

usefulness. Also, the perception of the respondents to the product.

Respondents

Respondents’ demographics was determined based on the data collected

that includes age, gender, and employment status.

 39

Age. The first information being collected was the age of the respondents.

This is to determine the age bracket of the respondents who were invited to partake

in the study. Data are presented in Table 2.

21 – 25 years old 29 72.50
16 – 20 years old 4 10
15 years old below 0 0
Total 40 100

Table 2 shows that of the 40 respondents, 29 (72.50%) of them were in the

age range of 21 to 25 years old, followed by 6 (15%) respondents who were in the

age range of 26 to 30 years old. This was followed by 4 (10%) respondents who

were in the age range of 16 to 20 years old. As for the 31 to 35 years old, 1 (2.50%)

respondent who was in this age range. Lastly, in the 15 years old below and 36

years old above nothing have been recorded in this age range.

This implies that the majority of the respondents were in the age range of 21

to 25 years old who were more involved into the usage of the automated sanitation.

This was due to the emergence of a global pandemic and with the fact that there

were more students having this age range who were users of this product.
 40

Gender. The second information being collected was the gender of the

respondents. This was to determine which gender of the respondents uses more of

the automated sanitation. Data was presented in Table 3.

SUMMARY, FINDINGS, CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION

The summary, findings, conclusion and recommendation are presented in

this chapter.

SUMMARY

This research aimed to assess the importance of the use of a non-

pharmaceutical intervention in dealing against CoVid19, specifically the use of

innovative hand sanitizer dispenser with fogging system in Cebu Technological

University Danao Campus College of Technology Unified Computer Laboratory, in

preparation to the face to face learning set-up. This sought to answer the

demographic of the respondents as to their age, gender, and employment status.

This looked unto the problems encountered using the manual sanitation, the

dimensions of quality, product acceptability, as well as the respondent’s perception

towards the product. Referring to the findings from the questions and perceptions

that have been conducted, the technology management plan was designed as an

output of the study.

 48

FINDINGS

The findings of the study are as follows:

Age. The majority of the respondents age were in the range of 21 to 25 years

old as revealed by the data. This garnered a total of 72.50 percent of the

respondents. This showed that most of the users of the product were the grown-

ups, knowing that college students were also in this age range.

Gender. The majority of the users were male that garnered a total of 62.50

percent that was revealed by the data. This indicated that most of the students,

faculty and staff of the College of Technology were male and few females. There

was no doubt about the gender majority, for most of the enrolled students and

employed faculty and staff were male.

Employment Status. The researchers were able to gather an equal

percentage of both the respondents, 50 percent of the students and 50 percent of

the faculty and staff who were the end users of the product.

Problems Encountered. The data provided by the respondents being

presented revealed the problems encountered using the manual sanitation. The

usage of manual sanitation was of no issue before the start of the CoVid19

pandemic, for its usage was not a requirement in all settings and venues. As the

pandemic emerge in early 2020 the use of sanitizer fluids became an ordeal, it

became a weapon in dealing against the virus. However, the use of unautomated

sanitizer dispenser may spread the virus defeating the purpose of full hand

sanitation because the user needs to touch the dispenser. The long-term use of the
 49

manual button was seen also as a problem, as the manual button will be pushed by

the users of different force, the button may loose over time. The scenario of the

users pushing the manual sanitizer dispenser also have been found to be time

consuming.

As a form of non-pharmaceutical intervention, making sanitation automated,

this applied research project of innovative hand sanitizer dispenser with fogging

system addresses the problems that were stated. In compliance to the guidelines

mandated by the Department of Health (DOH) and Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF),

this applied research project implements the mandate to use non-pharmaceutical

intervention to fight against CoVid19.

OUTPUT OF THE STUDY

Rationale

The pandemic has continued spreading throughout the world and countless

measures have been taken to provide prevention for the people and lessen the

number of cases affected by the virus COVID-19. To combat the spread of this

pandemic, hand hygiene has been put into practice, along with disinfection by

fogging or misting systems. These techniques are commonly known as Non-

pharmaceutical Interventions or NPIs which are measures done by individuals and

communities in addition to vaccines and medication to prevent the spread of

diseases like COVID-19. People necessitates safety without the hassle of doing

inconvenient countermeasures to prevent contracting this disease. With face-to-face

classes slowly resuming among universities, the possibility of having another wave

of the virus is inevitable but could be prevented when measures are properly

implemented.

Compared to hand washing, sanitizing hands through the innovative hand

sanitizer dispenser is a time-saving measure done with the same purpose as what

was first mentioned, which is hand washing. Hand sanitizers and ethyl/isopropyl

alcohols have been widely used especially since 2020 because this product kills

harmful bacteria, dries faster, is simple to use, and is a portable product. On the

other hand, disinfectants in a form of fogging or misting systems instigate the

prevention of spreading the virus by disinfecting the end-user who isn’t wearing the
 54

PPEs or Personal Protective Equipment in a much more natural setting. The

Innovative Hand Sanitizer Dispenser with Fogging System offers a change in a way

that technology is used to develop to meet certain demands in accordance with the

crisis humanity is facing right now.

Adapting to changes in sanitizing isn’t a new thing. Everything that surrounds

us has a presence of modernization. As Cebu Technological University - Danao

Campus will face the new normal, preventive measures to decrease the spread of

the virus COVID-19 has been firmly implemented. With the innovations made, the

researchers desire to provide a convenient way of sanitation for the students,

instructors, personnel, and officials of C TU Danao who enters the computer

laboratory of the College of Technology.

Objectives

To provide the necessary sanitation for the College of Technology Unified

Computer Laboratory, the innovative hand sanitizer dispenser with fogging system

can:

1. The product can sanitize the hands and disinfects through its fogging system.

2. Implement the usage of sanitation and disinfection for the students, faculty

and staff as they enter the computer laboratory.

3. Improve the sanitation system in the facility.

Scheme of Implementation

The implementation of the improvement plan is to Design and establish

convenient automated sanitation as the university will enter the new normal school
 55

learning set-up. Implement the plan in the Unified Computer Laboratory of the

College of Technology.
