Abstract:
Objective To retrieve and evaluate the evidence related to surgical instrument management,and to integrate the evidence to provide an evidence-based basis for clinical surgical instrument management practice.Methods Evidence on surgical instrument management,including guidelines,expert consensuses,and clinical decision-making,was systematically searched from domestic and international databases and related websites.The search timeframe was from database construction to 4 November 2024.Literature was screened and evaluated,and the evidence was integrated by 2 researchers.Results A total of 16 papers were included,including 2 systematic evaluations,1 class experimental study,2 clinical decisions,4 expert consensuses,5 guidelines,and 2 evidence summaries,resulting in a total of 33 pieces of evidence in 5 areas,including requirements for surgical instrument management,general principles of surgical instrument handling,logistics and supply chain management of surgical instruments,surgical instrument pre-treatment and cleaning,disinfection,and sterilisation processes,and personnel training.Conclusion This study summarises the best available evidence on the management of surgical instruments in hospitals and provides an evidence-based basis for healthcare professionals to manage surgical instruments,thereby improving the quality and efficiency of surgical instrument disposal.
