Medical Instrument

Overview of Medical Instruments doing Surgery

surgical instruments are handled in 3 different phases. intraoperative, post-operative and Pre-operative task. The mixture of these three phases is referred to as the instrument cycle.

Preoperatively the medical instrument sets and other supplies are gathered for the plan procedure according to the surgeon's preference card. The medical instrument container must be opened and the surgical instrument sets removed from the container. Surgical instruments and other medical supplies are organized and prepared for use on the back table and mayo stand.

Intraoperative surgical instrument handling involves a complex set of critical thinking and complex task. The STSR must be ready and aware of the needs of what the patient needs and the surgical team as well. The capacity to predicte these needs is accomplished through knowledge of autonomy and the understanding of any variations that may be necessary to accommodate the patient. It is important that the STSR observe the progress of the procedure to get necessary info. The surgeon may at times demand request by hand signals or verbally. The surgeon may call out the name of the desired instruments… scalpel, hemostatic clamp, surgical scissors, tissue forceps, free tie, etc.

Hand signals work best because it keeps talking to a minimum. This is why if the patient is not under general anesthesia he may feel awkward, its best just to keep them in the dark until the operation is done. Postoperative surgical instruments means handling all the steps of preparing the surgical instruments for use of surgery. These steps include decontamination, Inspection and maintenance, reassembly of the set, preparation for sterilization, storage and sterilization.

What is Hydroxy Isopropane and where it can be used. Can it be used to disinfect medical instruments?
Thanks

Where did you come up with that name for plain old rubbing alcohol? Yes, you can clean medical instruments with it, but not sterilize them with it. Killing 98% of the bacteria on an instrument is not good enough.
