Use of an Off-the-Shelf Corporate Information Tool to Track a High-Level-Disinfection Process.

High-Level Disinfection (HLD) of endoscopic equipment is a critical process to ensure patient safety. Although commercial tracking software is available, here we demonstrate the successful design and implementation of a HLD tracking system using pre-existing corporate information tools. After a brief development and implementation stage, the HLD unit is successfully tracking the process and are able to create simple visualizations to monitor and improve the existing procedures.
