(*chlorine compounds) used on: Epilator cords (non -critical) High -level disinfection - Answer -Disinfection process that inactivates some, but not necessarily all, bacterial spores. Is the minimum treatment recommended by the CDC for processing of semi -critical instrument. Used on: White needle holder caps, phoresis applicators/rollers. Examples: - Glutaraldehyde -based germicides (not recommended for sterilization of instruments based on their toxicity level, instability and impracticality). - Hydrogen peroxide/ peracetic acid -based formula. - Orthophthaladehyde. Sharps container - Answer -Specially manufactured and labeled, leak proof, puncture resistant, durable plastic container into which needles and lancets are placed after use. Disposed of as an item of regulated medical waste. It should only be 3/4 full. Antiseptic - Answer -A germicide used on skin or living tissue to inhibit or destroy microorganisms on the skin. Not appropriate in any instance for disinfecting inanimate objects Commonly used antiseptics are isopropyl alcohol (60 -70%), benzalkonium chlori de. Witch hazel with 14% alcohol is an astringent, not an antiseptic, but appropriate for post treatment. The FDA regulates antiseptics. Potential exposure to hepatitis, HIV and other blood -borne pathogen's - Answer -When a puncture injury occur: Remove and discard gloves Wash with water and soap. If wound is bleeding, allow to bleed. Apply anti -septic product Contact physician for consultation and post exposure strategies. Document the exposure including date and time, details of procedure, details of exposure, details of exposure source, details if exposed person, details about counseling, postexposure management, source client, follow up, etc. Alcohol -based rub - Answer -Preparations containing alcohol for application to the hands in order to reduce viable micro organisms. Used for hand antisepsis. 60% - 95% ethanol or isopropanol Aseptic technique - Answer -A set of specific practices used before, during and after a procedure to protect against the spread of pathogenic microorganisms. Examples: appropriately timed handwashing, decontamination of inanimate surfaces and instruments, u se of personal protective clothing or barriers, proper containment and disposal of waste, consistent handling of instruments., which minimize cross contamination and reduce the risk of exposure to pathogens.. Autoclave (steam sterilizer) - Answer -A device used for sterilization by application of pressurized steam and heat. Regulated by the FDA. Biological indicator (BI) - Answer -A commercially prepared device with a known population of highly resistant bacterial spores used to test the method of sterilization being monitored. Its used to demonstrate that conditions necessary to achieve sterilizati on were met during the cycle being monitored. (*Must be used no less than once a month. Lab reports should be filed in permanent sterility assurance file.) Regulated by the FDA. Chemical indicator - Answer -A commercially prepared device used to monitor all or parts of the physical conditions of a heat sterilization process by means of a characteristic color change, usually chemically treated paper strips. It does not indicate that sterilization has been achieved and most indicate only that the temperature needed was attained. Some are capable of 'integrating' time at a particular temperature before color change. Regulated by the FDA.
