Abstract:
Objective To study the effects of two disinfection methods for simple respirators in order to select the better sterilization method for the disinfection of simple respirators.Methods One hundred and sixty simple respirators contaminated at the same degree were randomly divided into the manual group and the mechanical group equally .The former took the manual cleaning and disinfection and the latter the mechanical cleaning and disinfection for the disinfection and cleaning of simple respirators.The two groups were compared with regard to the qualified rate of disinfection at the outer and inner surface and the interface of the ball cavity after disinfection cleaning.Results The qualified rates of the mechanical cleaning and disinfection at various parts of the simple respirators were 100%.The qualified rate of manual cleaning and disinfection at the outer surface,the inner surface and the interface were 100%,91.25%and 93.75%,respectively.There was no significant difference in the disinfection effect at the outer surface and interface of simple respirators between the two groups(both P>0.05).But the two kinds of cleaning and disinfections at the inner surface of the respirators were significantly different as regards the qualified rate(P<0.05).Conclusion For the disinfection of simple respirator,the mechanical cleaning and disinfection is better than the manual cleaning and disinfection.
