ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the method of the operation of the tube type,improve the drying efficiency,and control the occurrence of infection in hospital,reduce the energy consumption.Methods Devices with full automatic washing machine washing out the lumen of 600 pieces were divided into control group and two experimental group by random digital table method each group was 200 pieces,respectively,and using dumped water before drying,luminal devices placed in different position and different container among the three groups in 90 ℃ drying 30 minutes after lumen devices to compare the drying effect.Results At the dry temperature 90℃,the same drying time of 30 minutes,the rate of drying qualified of the experimental group 2 was 100.0％ (200/200),which was higher than 82.5％ (165/200) of the experimental group 1,the difference was statistically significant (x2=38.356,P ＜ 0.05);and also higher than 21％ (42/200) of the control group,the difference was statistically significant (x2=261.157,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The new drying operation method can improve the drying efficiency of the tube type,and control the risk of inffection in the hospital.
