In this video, we have discussed the scientific methods for processing of surgical instruments, ie Cleaning, decontamination, disinfection, High-level disinfection & Autoclaving process in the used hospital equipment or instruments .
If surgical instruments or medical devices are not adequately cleaned, and then either high-level disinfected or sterilized, health care-associated infections can result, including surgical site infections, infections with blood borne pathogens (e.g., hepatitis B and C, HIV), and ventilator- or catheter-associated infections. Therefore, it is critical that the health care workers who are responsible for processing instruments follow all steps carefully to provide adequately cleaned and high-level disinfected or sterilized instruments for patient care.
In this video you will learn the methods of -
1. Cleaning : the removal of visible dirt (e.g., organic and inorganic material) from objects and surfaces, normally accomplished manually or mechanically, using water with detergents or enzymatic cleaners. Cleaning is required before high-level disinfection or sterilization because tissue, blood, body fluids, dirt, and debris reduce the effectiveness of these processes.
2.Decontamination : the process of removing pathogenic microorganisms from objects so they are safe to handle, use, or discard. It can be done using physical or chemical means.
3.High-level disinfection : The process that kills all microorganisms but not necessarily all bacterial spores. HLD is achieved by soaking items in liquid chemicals classified as high-level disinfectants or by boiling or steaming for the appropriate time (20 minutes).
4. Sterilization : the process used to render an item free from viable microorganisms, including spores.
Along with this we have also mentioned Personal protective equipment (PPE) items which are the protective barriers and respirators used alone or in combination by a health care worker (HCW) to protect mucous membranes, airways, skin, and clothing from contact with harmful or infectious agents.
