The correct cleaning method guarantees the disinfection and/or sterilization process
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 1905-07-09) Mendoza Vásquez, Jaqueline; Vasquez Herrera, Fiorella Eliana; Gómez Gonzales, Walter Edgar
Objective: Determine whether manual cleaning or automated cleaning reduces greater microbial bioload of surgical medical material. Material and methods: Systematic Review, the search has been restricted to articles with full text, and the selected articles were subjected to a critical reading, using Jover's evaluation to identify their degree of evidence. Results: In the final selection, 10 articles were chosen, we found that 50% (05) correspond to Brazil, with 20% (02) we find the United States, while with 10% (01) we find Cuba, Mexico and Peru respectively. Mostly experimental and quasi-experimental studies have been studied, mainly in all countries. Where of the total number of articles analyzed, 100% affirm that manual cleaning in addition to automated cleaning reduces a greater microbial load of medical-surgical material. Conclusions: The 10 articles reviewed show us that the correct cleaning method is achieved with the application of an adequate procedure and automated methods are the most effective, in addition to the fact that an incorrect cleaning method interferes with the disinfection or sterilization process.

Corrosion of surgical instruments due to the use of common water vs distilled water
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 1905-07-09) Castillo Sánchez, Rosa María; Gómez Gonzales, Walter Edgar
Objective: Determine if the corrosion of surgical instruments is produced by the use of common water vs. distilled water. Materials and Methods: Systematic Reviews are an observational and retrospective research design, which synthesizes the results of multiple primary investigations. They are an essential part of evidence-based nursing due to their rigorous methodology, identifying relevant studies to answer specific questions of clinical practice. Results: In the final selection, 13 articles were chosen, we found that 31% (4) correspond to Spain, 14% (2) correspond to Colombia and Chile, with 7% (1) Cuba, Mexico, Peru were found. , Venezuela and Brazil respectively. 69% were experimental studies from the countries of Spain, Peru, Mexico, Colombia, Venezuela and Chile. With 31% we have cross-sectional studies belonging to Brazil, Chile, Spain, and Cuba. Of the total number of articles analyzed, 80% concluded that plain water causes corrosion in surgical instruments. It was evident in the reviewed research that stainless steel instruments should not be subjected to cleaning, disinfection and sterilization processes, whose dilution component is common water, nor should they be immersed in a physiological salt solution. Prolonged contact and immersion in the solution causes corrosion pitting and forms stress corrosion cracking. Conclusion: It is recommended to use distilled water to avoid corrosion of surgical instruments, especially for final rinsing, after cleaning and disinfection.
