There are many ways to disinfect and sterilize items. Both methods are effective in reducing microbial contamination to acceptable "safe" levels, although the former is more commonly used than the latter. In addition to cleaning objects, disinfection can also be used in medical settings. These methods can eliminate pathogenic microorganisms by killing the organisms or destroying their spores. Fortunately, there is no need to use high temperatures in these processes.
Surgical instruments, for example, are frequently used in the hospital setting. They come into contact with mucous membranes and sterile tissue, and the introduction of an infection is a major risk. In hospitals, proper disinfection and sterilization can help prevent the spread of infection. In fact, a high-quality, reusable surgical instrument is safer for multiple patients, meaning it can be reused again.
There are two types of medical devices: semi-critical and critical. Semi-critical devices are those that come into contact with intact mucous membranes or skin. They do not penetrate tissues, and are therefore relatively resistant to microorganisms. Still, all semi-critical devices should be reprocessed and thoroughly cleaned to remove microbial growth. Ultimately, sterilization and disinfection are important in preventing infection, but they must be used properly.
The most common methods for reprocessing medical devices are ozone (O3) disinfection and UV sterilization. Depending on the type of device, these techniques can reduce the number of microorganisms that may be on the surface. Some devices have the potential to cause infections, which is why proper sanitation and ozone are so critical. The risks of infection depend on the type of medical device, which is why the CDC and VA have created a list of recommended disinfectants and sterilization protocols for these devices.
Depending on the type of device, it is important to determine which method is best for the particular situation. Noncritical devices should be cleaned by low-level disinfection. However, semi-critical devices should be sterilized by high-level disinfection. Likewise, high-level disinfection should be performed when it is necessary to eliminate vegetative microorganisms. If you are using the process for a critical medical device, make sure that you follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully.
Steam sterilization is another method that can effectively disinfect medical devices. This method uses steam heated to high temperatures to ensure that all pathogens are destroyed. The autoclaves can sterilize medical devices for 15 minutes at 250degF, while a higher-level sterilization procedure can sterilize them for 3 minutes at 273degF. There are many different types of heat sterilization. These methods can render all vegetative bacteria inactive.
Chemical sterilants, or CSSD, are used for longer periods to kill all forms of microbes. The most common types of chemical sterilants are peracetic acid (0.2%), glutaraldehyde (0.5%), and hydrogen peroxide (7%). To qualify for this award, a hospital must meet the criteria in the APSIC Self-Assessment Framework.
