Sterilization Procedures of Surgical Instruments

1. Management System of Surgical Instruments

 Surgical instruments must be sterilized one by one, by high-pressure steam or by high-efficiency chemical sterilization.Check whether the joints of the surgical instruments are sharp and whether the forceps and tweezers are closed regularly.The surgical instruments must be thoroughly cleaned, packaged and sent to sterilization after used. Sterile items must be stored in sterile area counters. The room should be ventilated, dry, clean, dust-free and sundry.Surgical instruments should not be soaked and disinfected with disinfectant as far as possible. If highly effective disinfectant is used, the quality, concentration and soaking time of disinfectant should be guaranteed. The joint of forceps should be opened during soaking.

2. Sterilization of Surgical Instruments

The used surgical instruments should be cleaned of blood stains in the instruments with clean water first.Kick out the suture needle and surgical blade and throw them away without cleaning.If found not close, there are problems with the equipment removed in time, the qualified equipment will be classified.
   
 Sterilization method: high-pressure steam sterilization method is the most widely used, the effect is reliable.High pressure steam sterilizer can be divided into two categories: lower exhaust type and pre-vacuum type.The latter sterilization time is short, the need for sterilization of the goods slightly harmful, but expensive, not throughout the use.The current widely used in China is the lower exhaust sterilizer, sterilization time is longer.
  
 Disinfection method: soaking disinfection with liquid medicine.Sharp instruments, endoscopy and other instruments are not suitable for thermal sterilization, can be soaked in chemical liquid disinfection.
  
Attention: (1) before soaking, to wipe the oil on the device;(2) to disinfect the goods is necessary to immerse all in the solution;(3) the shaft section of the device (such as scissors), the shaft section should be opened;The surface of the tube and bottle should be soaked in disinfectant;(4) before use, need to use sterilized salt water to wash the liquid medicine clean, to avoid the arrangement by the harm of the liquid medicine.

Tyvek Protective Coveralls

  Tyvek   Protective Coveralls  (Tyvek) is a wide range of   protective gown   manufactured by Tyvek (Tyvek) for use by emergency responders to industrial workers. Tyvek  protective clothing  offers the industry's proven most scientific solutions, including the reliable brand 3360Tyvek for dust protection, Tychem for liquid and gas hazardous chemical protection, NOMEX for heat and flame protection, and KEVLAR for cutting and wear protection. TYVEK protective suit is made of traditional TYVEK polymer coating. It has the strength/weight ratio and softness of TYVEK protective suit, which can completely protect fine and harmful dust, concentrated inorganic acid and alkali and water and salt solution. Protects up to 2 bar pressure from spatter. The Tevetron protective suit (Tevetron) has been proven to protect fluids, blood and pathogens in blood through osmosis tests with blood and virus substitutes. Function description of Trevek protective suit: TYVEK pr...

Biodegradability, reusability and safety of protective clothing

  Microplastic pollution, known as "pm2.5 in water", has become a direct source of pollution in the ocean, soil and drinking water, affecting human health. Medical   protective coveralls   is almost made of different polymer materials. The development of a new material can replace the existing material to form a new series of products. As most of the existing   protective suits  are designed to be disposable, they are used heavily during the pandemic. Used medical   protective clothing   should be disposed of centrally to prevent secondary transmission of the virus. Therefore, protective clothing materials must be developed to be repeatable and degradable. Due to the particularity of application scenarios, most medical  protective gown  is disposable. Therefore, environment-friendly materials should be considered in the development of medical  protective gown , and must be considered before material selection and protective clothes desig...

Production process of medical protective clothing

  Generally speaking, the production of medical   protective coveralls   needs to go through the steps of raw material preparation, cutting, stitching, tightening, adhesive and pressing, finished products, sterilization and disinfection, warehousing and so on. Among them, sterilization and disinfection takes the longest time. Ethylene oxide is mostly used for sterilization and disinfection of materials, which requires 7-14 days of analysis, seriously affecting the production efficiency of medical   protective gown , and a more efficient sterilization method is urgently needed. Irradiation sterilization can be sterilized without disassembly and assembly, which is efficient and prevents secondary pollution. In 2011, Japan has listed the operation specifications of irradiation sterilization in the sterilization standard for protective clothing, which will reduce the sterilization time to less than 1 d. In order to address the shortage of medical protective clothes durin...
