ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To appraise the bacteriostatic and blocking effect and cost construction of different kinds of materials.METHODS To divide all items into three parts at random:cotton fabric,paper-plastic package,and medical grade wrinkle paper and to study the bacteriostatic and blocking effect and cost construction of them.RESULTS Paper-plastic package and medical grade wrinkle paper had better bacteriostatic and blocking properties than cotton fabric.Comparing with cotton fabric,paper-plastic package and medical grade wrinkle paper could reduce the cost separately by 27% and 50%;the cost of wrinkle paper was lower than paper-plastic package by 32%.CONCLUSIONS Paper-plastic package and wrinkle paper have better effect on blocking bacteria and less cost than cotton fabric,which deserve more extensive application in clinic.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To study the shelf life of paper-plastic packing items after steam sterilization in different time and different environment.METHODS From Jan to Dec 2005,monthly take ten samples which deposited in central sterilization supply department,emergency room and postpartum room at the same time for bacterial culture.Every time we took ten sterility packs in each department as mentioned,paper-plastic packing had been adopted for the sterility packs in steam sterilization.RESULTS The sterility packages in clinical departments started to grow bacteria from the 9th month.And packages in supply room had no bacteria even at the 12th month.CONCLUSIONS In order to ensure the sterilization quality of paper-plastic packing with steam sterilization,we should choose high quality package material,ensure the cleaning quality,supply favorable storage environment and decrease the artificial pollution.
