Medical devices refer to various devices used in the medical field, including various devices used for clinical diagnosis, medical tests and clinical inspections. The instruments after use are seriously contaminated. Many instruments have blood stains, pus stains, dry excrement and secretions. If they are not cleaned well, sterilization will be difficult or even failure. Domestic investigations have proved that there are still some occult blood positives on some sterilized instruments, especially instruments with teeth, gaps, pores and joints, which are difficult to clean, which may easily lead to improper cleaning. The protein organic matter contaminated on medical equipment is not cleaned well, has a protective effect on microorganisms, and easily causes sterilization failure. The main reasons for the unclean cleaning of instruments are insufficient attention to cleaning, insufficient scrubbing, neglect and omission of difficult-to-clean parts, improper detergents or improper cleaning methods, etc.
Disinfection and sterilization of medical devices is the guarantee of medical safety, and it is an important measure to avoid infection for medical devices that have been sterilized. Reusable medical equipment refers to equipment that can be reused after cleaning and sterilization, and its cleaning quality directly affects the infection rate. Therefore, the standard of cleaning and disinfection supply center for reused medical equipment before sterilization, reused medical equipment needs to be cleaned, sterilized, packaged, and stored by the disinfection supply center. The importance of cleaning and disinfection The significance of cleaning is: restoring the clean state of reusable instruments is conducive to maintaining their functions and preventing accidental injuries to patients, while removing a large amount of contaminated organic matter, bacteria and pyrogens, and reducing subsequent sterilization Difficulty. Disinfection refers to the process of killing and eliminating pathogenic microorganisms that pollute the environment and media to make it harmless. The task of disinfection is to eliminate pathogenic microorganisms in the external environment, cut off the transmission route of infection, and block the spread of infectious diseases. According to modern preventive medicine, the treatment procedures for contaminated medical devices should be disinfection, cleaning, drying, and sterilization, which is more conducive to reducing occupational infections among medical staff, protecting the environment from pollution, and more in line with hygiene requirements. In order to facilitate scientific and reasonable treatment of contaminated medical devices, we should have a better understanding of the special requirements for disinfection and sterilization such as modern medical device sterilization technology and its application and progress, medical device shape and structure, and material classification.
