Importance of Proper Pressurization in Surgery Rooms: A Message to Hospital Administrators | As a #hospital administrator, it is crucial to understand the significance of maintaining proper pressurization in surgery rooms. KEY POINTS: Patient Safety: Proper #pressurization helps create a sterile environment, reducing the risk of infections and ensuring the safety of patients undergoing surgical procedures. Infection Control: Maintaining correct pressurization levels is essential for controlling airborne contaminants and #pathogens, and minimizing the spread of infections within the surgical space. Optimal Air Quality: Proper pressurization supports optimal air quality by controlling airflow patterns, ensuring a clean and healthy environment for both patients and #healthcare staff. Enhanced Environmental Quality: By regulating air change rates and maintaining positive pressurization, surgery rooms can uphold high environmental quality standards, contributing to better patient outcomes. Surgical Success: Effective pressurization systems play a vital role in supporting successful surgical outcomes by providing a controlled and sterile environment for procedures to take place. CASE STUDY SUCCESS VIDEO Check out the Case Study video below of the McLaren Macomb Surgery Center. Ever heard of solutions like the "SmartSuite" airframe for operating rooms? It integrates #airflow, #filtration, #pressurization control, #lighting, and real-time #monitoring to ensure critical air quality and infection factors are managed effectively. It's like an all-in-one package for success! #HVAC #hvacdesign #hospitals #PhoenixControls #VenturiValves #operatingrooms #surgeryrooms #ventilization #airflow #healthcare Insight Partners

7 Reasons Ultrasonic Cleaners Are Essential for Hospitals Ultra Clean Systems Inc | Blog Why your sterile processing department should add one Healthcare-acquired infections (HAIs) are estimated to directly cost US hospitals $28 billion to $45 billion.¹ Surgical site infections (SSIs) are a small percentage of that, but their cost to US hospitals still runs into billions of dollars. That doesn’t count the costs to the patients themselves... Evolved Sterile Processing Consulting brings you the news that makes a difference in healthcare.

Dear CDC, Re: Instrument #Sterilization Lapses in Florida? The #CDC's report in #MMWR discussing this cluster (link: https://lnkd.in/eRkRUrEv) is as notable for educating the public about the risks of exposing patients to nontuberculous #mycobacteria (or #NTM) during cosmetic surgery performed in the U.S. as it is (in my opinion) for the crucial data the health officials did not disclose and/or did not collect. The CDC's report, for instance, does not identify the #Florida clinic by its name. This omission raises a number of questions -- including the potential for publication bias. Generally speaking, disclosure and transparency are integral to public health's mission. (Also oddly, a "state health department spokesperson said the agency doesn’t confirm or deny the existence of doctor licensure or epidemiological investigations," according to an associated new report in the 'Tampa Bay Times,' which is appended.) Second, according to the CDC's report, the source (of the cluster's M. abscessus) "has not yet been identified." Presumably, the tap water was a suspect. Yet, the report does not state specifically whether investigators microbiologically cultured the clinic's tap water, and if so, what the findings were. (It is unclear whether such environmental testing might have been precluded during the investigation once the clinic was closed.) And third, the CDC's report states that health officials identified "gaps" in #infectioncontrol -- including "surgical device #disinfection." But what exactly were these identified lapses that could pose an increased risk of NTM infection during cosmetic surgeries? We need each misstep identified so #infectionprevention practices in other U.S. facilities can be promptly audited, and corrected as required, to ensure the same breaches are not being repeated. Listing the identified gaps seems basic to me. While conjecture, I wonder whether the clinic might have been disinfecting, rather than sterilizing, one or more reusable surgical instruments followed by rinsing them with NTM-contaminated tap water, and then using the instruments (if inadvertently) wet without first drying them. Food for thought. --> Comments and perspectives welcomed.

Cross-contamination, the transfer of harmful micro-organisms during or after surgery, often leads to surgical site infections (SSIs), which can be caused by bacteria, fungi, parasites or viruses and spread through various means, including unsterilised medical equipment, human contact and contaminated objects. Such infections can complicate and delay healing, increase pain, prolong hospital stays, escalate costs and increase chances of morbidity and mortality, especially in immuno-compromised and older individuals. Cross-contamination can occur during procedures such as surgery or IV administration, making proper hygiene, wound care and sterilisation methods crucial for prevention. Following these steps can make patient care more effective and reduce the chances of post-operative complications: * Hand Hygiene: Healthcare providers must wash hands thoroughly before and after every procedure and wound care activities, ensuring the consistent use of alcohol-based antimicrobial gels. * Equipment Disinfection: Vigilant cleaning, disinfection and sterilisation of all equipment, tools and materials that come into contact with a patient post-operatively are essential. * Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Changing personal protective equipment between treating patients, using masks and ensuring proper glove removal are critical measures to prevent cross-contamination. * Single-use products: When treating open wounds, sealed single-use products minimise the risk of cross-contamination from shared items. * Antimicrobial-impregnated Discs: These can be used to prevent catheter-associated infections, especially when intravenous lines or tubes are used for an extended period. #Healthium #HealthiumMedtech #HealthiumMedtechLtd #Medtech #MedicalDevice #MedicalDevices #StayHealthium #HealthAdvisory #HealthAwareness #PatientCare #WoundCare #PatientWellness #AdvancedWoundCare #CrossContamination #SSI #SurgicalSiteInfections #CrossContaminationPrevention #SurgicalSafety #InfectionPrevention #PatientSafety #InfectionControl #HospitalSafety #Sterilisation
