Medical devices and healthcare

Cleanrooms help reduce infection and contamination in hospitals by controlling and minimizing the level of airborne particulates and ensuring an antimicrobial environment.

The use of cleanrooms and controlled environments have become more important in healthcare as hospitals and health systems deal with infectious diseases and work to reduce hospital-acquired infections. Cleanrooms and hospital cleanroom supplies are more common than ever in health systems to help control the spread of airborne particles and microorganisms.

Various supplies and tools are needed to keep hospital environments in control and free from contaminants that could compromise cleanliness. Some healthcare cleanroom products include:

• Air filtration systems
• Cleaning systems
• Environmental monitoring products
• Biosafety cabinets
• Floor mats
• Effective detergents and cleaners 
• Hand soap and sanitizers 
• Sterile cleaning wipers 
• Quality swabs 
• Sterile vials 
• Sterile syringes
• Autoclaves 
• Incubators
• Needles 
• Biohazard bags

There are several steps you must take to maintain a hospital cleanroom. General requirements include:

• Ensure environmental controls are set precisely and function accurately 
• Train staff to adhere to cleanroom protocols 
• Stock cleanroom with necessary supplies 
• Conduct routine maintenance on all cleanroom equipment 
• Adhere to a routine cleaning schedule 
• Evaluate any new process or procedure to ensure it does not negatively impact the cleanroom

Some of the safety precautions you should take in healthcare facilities are basic actions. However, these standard safety precautions can effectively lower the risk of infection or injury. The following safety precautions are standard for any patient care:

• Practice hand hygiene 
• Use personal protective equipment (PPE) in cases where there is a risk of exposure to infectious material 
• Handle, clean and disinfect patient care equipment and instruments according to proper instructions 
• Adhere to proper respiratory hygiene/cough etiquette 
• Handle patient bedding and laundry with care 
• Follow safe injection practices 
• Properly handle needles and other sharps

By taking these safety precautions, you can help avoid unnecessary harm or the spread of infectious diseases.
