Results reveals from this study that, 46.66% of the operating room infrastructures were not up to the required international standards. Skin cleaning was carried out in 31 % of the cases by standard products but the different steps were not respected. Concerning hand washing and preliminaries to surgical scrub, it was a forgotten practice or non-applied practice in the regional hospital of Ngaoundéré. The surgical disinfection of hands by friction in its two stages were not observed normally in 75.70 % and 97.10 % respectively.
