Used syringes should be classified for treatment
Jun 01, 2022
Disposable syringes can be divided into three types: serious pollution, general pollution and basically pollution-free according to their uses. For syringes with different degrees of pollution, their treatment methods are also different. Then how to classify them is explained below.
1. Seriously polluted Syringes: syringes that are in direct contact with the patient's body fluids, such as blood, pleural fluid, ascites, etc., because the patient's body fluids are potential sources of infection.
2. Generally polluted Syringes: that is, only the needle part is the syringe in contact with the patient, such as routine injection and infusion, and some syringes used for hanging water at ordinary times.
3. Basically pollution-free use of syringes: syringes that are not in direct contact with patients are basically pollution-free use of syringes, such as syringes used during dosing. Of course, improper operation and contamination should be excluded.
This is the classification of disposable syringes. If you want to deal with it, you should deal with it according to such a classification method. Different pollution levels should have different treatment methods
