The Usage and Disinfection of Sterile Surgical Packs

Use methods and requirements
1.   In a dry environment, sterile packs are valid for seven days.
2.   Before using, check the name and the date of sterilization of the aseptic packs, whether the pack is loose or moist, and check the color change of the chemical indicator tape.
3.   Place the sterile surgical pack flat on the clean, dry and spacious operating table.
4.   After untying the tie belt and wrapping it, fold it under the back table cover, then pinch the outer corner of the back table cover with your fingers, and then uncover the outer corner, left and right corner and inner corner of the back table cover in turn.If a double-packing sterile surgical kit is used, the lining should be opened with sterile forceps.
5.   Use sterile forceps to pick up the required items and place them in a prepared sterile area.
6.   If the items in the package are not used up at one time, the package shall be packed in accordance with the original crease pattern. The tape shall be bundle horizontally to show the difference, and note the date and time of opening the package, and the validity period shall be 24 hours.If the contents are contaminated, they should be sterilized again.
7.   If the contents of the package are removed all at once, the bag can be held in the hand,and the other hand grabs the four corners of the back table cover and steadily puts all the contents into the sterile area.
Sterile methods:
1. Pressure steam sterilization is the most reliable method.However, those materials such as plastics, glass, sharp scalpel and scissors which are not resistant to high temperature and pressure can be disinfected with chemical disinfectant.
2. Used surgical instruments should be cleaned of organic and inorganic materials.
3. After drying, paraffin oil should be applied to the joint of the surgical instruments.
4. Pack and paste instructions to indicate package name and validity of sterilization.
5. After high pressure, take out the inspection indicating tape and check for color change.

Effect of Electron Beam I Irradiation on Breaking Strength of Medical Disposable Protective Clothing Material

  Abstract: Disinfection or sterilization is an important part of the production process of medical disposable protective clothing (referred to as medical protective clothing). Compared with ethylene oxide sterilization method, irradiation is faster and more efficient. Since medical protective clothing has strict requirements in terms of protection performance,the radiation effect of its materials has important research significance. The electron beam accelerator was used to treat three kinds of medical  protective clothing  materials polypropylene (PP), polyester fiber (PET) and Tyvek with different absorbed doses. Then the samples were subjected to aging tests for different time. The main performance indicators related to radiation effect in GB 19082-2009 were tested. Test results show that the performances of the three kinds of medical  protective gown  such as resistance to water penetration, resistance to synthetic blood penetration, and filtration efficien...

Design And Nursing Application of Disposable Medical Surgery Sterile Operation Package

  Abstract: Preoperative time-out verification is an important procedure for surgical safety verification. In order to improve the implementation rate and satisfaction of medical and nursing Time-out surgical safety verification, this study designed a disposable medical surgical sterile surgical kit. The time-out indicator label is added to the incision site of the  surgical gown , which meets the use requirements of the time-out confirmation in the operating room. Compared with the old  surgical package , surgeons and nurses have significantly improved the implementation rate and satisfaction of Time-out surgical safety verification (P<0.05). The implementation rate of Time-out surgery safety verification in the new surgical kit group was 100.0%, which was significantly higher than the 70.0% in the old surgical kit group (t=11.863, P=0.001<0.05); the satisfaction of the surgeons and nurses in the new  surgical kit  group They were 95.3±3.5 and 96.2±3.8, w...

Classification of Surgical Gowns

  Surgical gowns   are a type of   isolation clothing  worn for protection from pathogens during surgery. They provide an extra layer of cleanliness and hygiene to the surgical team, which is especially important in the hospital setting where more than one patient may be undergoing surgery at any given time. The first step to choosing a   surgical gown   for your practice is determining what fabric you prefer: cotton or synthetic? Cotton offers superior comfort and breathability but can wear out quicker than some synthetics; whereas synthetic fabrics offer more durability but a less natural feel. Synthetic fabrics also tend to cost less on average than cotton ones do – so it’s really up to you! These fabrics have large pores through which microorganisms can easily flow, resulting in poor barrier qualities. Closely woven textiles should be combined with polyester and long-staple cotton and treated with liquid-repellent fluorocarbons to improve the barrier qu...
