Few aspects of managing a healthcare facility are more immediately important to patient care than the safe use of equipment and devices. Although some devices are designed for single use, many more are designed to be reused and there have been increasing reports of infections and other adverse patient reactions due to these devices, in particular when regarding surgical and endoscopic procedures. The decontamination or processing of various surfaces, spaces, and devices associated with patient care is a life-saving discipline demanding dedicated resources and education. Decontamination and Device Processing in Healthcare, Second Edition meets this demand as a comprehensive training and reference manual for the decontamination and processing of equipment and devices used in patient care environments. This book is ideal for medical staff involved in the management of devices within healthcare facilities, including those purchasing, using, and processing devices on patients, and those responsible for their safety.
