Effectiveness of using nonwoven fabric packaging to reduce contamination of sterile surgical instruments
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2018-01-27) Acosta Loli, Verónica María; Gutiérrez Arista, Virginia Isabel; Pretell Aguilar, Rosa Maria
Objectives: To analyze and systematize the evidence demonstrating the effectiveness in reducing contamination of sterile surgical instruments through the use of packaging with non-woven fabric. Materials and Methods: The study is a systematic review with an observational and retrospective design, synthesizing and analyzing 9 scientific articles according to the Grade system, focusing on the use of packaging with non-woven fabric for reducing contamination of sterile surgical instruments. The articles were obtained from the following databases: BVS, Lilacs, Scielo, PubMed, and Epistemonikos, and were critically assessed to determine their strength and level of evidence. Results: The population consists of 9 articles, of which 78% (7/9) are based on experimental methodological design, and 22% (2/9) are systematic reviews. 44% of the articles are from Brazil, 33% from the United States, 11% from India, and 11% from Singapore. Conclusions: 78% of the nine reviewed articles (7/9) demonstrate that the use of non-woven fabric packaging is effective in reducing contamination of sterile surgical instruments.

Type of surgical clothing with the best cost/benefit for its provision in the sterilization center.
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2017) Rubio Silvestre, Angela Azucena; Gómez Gonzales, Walter Edgar
Objective: To evaluate and determine which type of surgical clothing—woven or non-woven fabric—offers the best cost/benefit ratio for the provision of surgical clothing in the Sterilization Center. Materials and Methods: Observational and retrospective systematic review, with a restriction to full-text articles. The selected articles underwent critical reading using the GRADE system to identify their level of evidence. Results: In the final selection, 4 articles were chosen, with 75% from Brazil and 25% from Spain. 50% of the studies were cross-sectional, 25% were systematic reviews, and 25% were quasi-experimental studies. Half of the studies found woven fabric to be less expensive than non-woven fabric, while 25% of the articles found that woven fabric left microfibers that adhered to the surgical wound, causing damage. Another 25% found no significant benefits between woven and non-woven fabric. Conclusions: No significant evidence was found to determine whether woven or non-woven fabric is more suitable for providing surgical clothing in the Sterilization Center.
