ABSTRACT

La esterilización es el método de referencia para asegurar la asepsia del instrumental utilizado para realizar curas. La desinfección química ha demostrado una alta eficacia para asegurar ese proceder en los equipos de endoscopia sin que haya referencias definitivas de su eficacia en los equipos de curas. Objetivo: Valorar la eficacia de la desinfección química en los equipos de curas, utilizando como método de referencia la esterilización. Métodos: Estudio prospectivo en el que se ha comparado la eficacia del glutaraldehído-fenolato frente a la esterilización en 9 equipos de curas, cada uno con una pinza de disección y otra de Kocher, utilizados en 122 curas llevadas a cabo en diferentes áreas del Hospital de León. La eficacia se ha valorado mediante estudios microbiológicos después de las curas y después de la desinfección o esterilización. Resultados: No hubo ningún cultivo positivo ni tras la desinfección ni tras la esterilización. La existencia de cultivos positivos después de las curas estuvo en relación con el tipo de herida tratada, siendo siempre negativos en las heridas limpias y frecuentemente positivos en las heridas sucias (p<0,05).Conclusión: La desinfección química con glutaraldehído-fenolato es igual de eficaz que la esterilización en asegurar la asepsia de los equipos, ofreciendo claras ventajas frente a ella al tener un bajo coste, evitar la duplicidad de equipos, permitir una vida más larga de los mismos y no precisar desplazarlos de los sitios de uso, evitando así su pérdida.

ABSTRACT

UNLABELLED: Sterilization is the reference method recommended to ensure the asepsia of an instrument used to perform cures. Chemical disinfection has shown itself to be highly effective in this process for endoscope equipment without there being definitive references about its efficiency on instruments used for cures. OBJECTIVE: Evaluate the efficiency of chemical disinfection on instruments used for cures, with the reference method being sterilization. METHODS: Prospective study in which the efficiency of glutaraldehyde-phenolate is compared to sterilization on 9 sets of instruments used for cures, each one having a dissection clamp and a Kocher clamp, used in 122 cures carried out in different wards at the León Hospital. Their efficiency was evaluated by means of microbiological studies after cures were performed and after disinfection or sterilization occurred. RESULTS: There were no positive cultures after either the disinfection or the sterilization. The existence of positive cultures after cures was related to the type of wound treated, clean wounds were always negative while dirty wounds were frequently positive (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Chemical disinfection with glutaraldehyde-phenolate is as efficient as sterilization in assuring the asepsia of instruments, while offering some clear advantages compared to sterilization since this chemical disinfection has a low cost, its use avoids the need to have duplicate instrument sets, it provides a longer life for these instruments and does not require moving instruments from their work site, thus preventing their loss.

ABSTRACT

The First Meeting of the Spanish European Project on Nursing was held in León from May 24th to 26th 1990. This seminar was attended by nursing professionals from 11 Spanish hospitals participating in the Project. During the meeting, an important discussion was held on the protocols used with regard to practical aspects, in order to unify criteria and homologate the results obtained by the different centres. By means of this seminar, Spanish professionals made an important contribution to the design of this Spanish project, not only as collaborators but also as active participants in the research conducted.
