Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the feasibility and sterile effect of low-temperature plasma sterilizer produced by Chinese Academy of Sciences for the sterilization of arthroscope surgical instruments.METHODS To explore the cleaning,package,arrangement and sterile effect monitoring of instruments in the process of arthroscope sterilization using low-temperature plasma sterilizer.RESULTS In the sterilization process of arthroscope surgical instruments using low-temperature plasma sterilizer,the chemical indicators and indicating patch were discolored,the monitoring of bio-box and the sterilization monitoring of surgical instruments were all negative.CONCLUSIONS Using the low-temperature plasma sterilizer machine for the sterilization of endoscope surgical instruments can ensure the security of sterilization,make less injury of precise instruments,shorten the sterilization time,accelerate the surgical turnover,enhance the frequency of surgical instruments application,and increase the efficiency.
