Abstract
The objective of this analysis was to understand the relationship between knowledge and attitudes regarding methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and hand hygiene behavior based on a baseline survey administered to Veterans with spinal cord injuries and disorders. Higher knowledge was associated with higher attitude scores (r=0.35, P=.003), but knowledge and attitudes were not associated with behavior. Also, those with quadriplegia had higher knowledge scores (P=.03). Knowledge and attitudes, although related, do not appear to fully explain patients' hand hygiene behavior.
