Preparation of medical products with compressed air
in practices, surgical theatres & hospitals/clinics
The manual preparation of medical products takes place in almost all medical facilities, whether in clinics, doctors' practices, ambulatory operating theatres, research institutes or medical laboratories.
Hygienic drying
An important step in manual reprocessing is the hygienic drying of medical instruments with oil-free compressed air. Drying is particularly important, as the risk of germ multiplication is very high when the instruments are stored in a moist condition. Even low residual moisture can lead to recontamination by bacteria in the lumens and channels of the instruments. To prevent this, the cavities and outer surfaces of the instruments are dry-blown with filtered compressed air.
The drying of medical instruments with oil-free compressed air is also recommended by the independent group "Arbeitskreis Instrumentenaufbereitung" (AKI).
