Apr 24, 2024 Leave a message

When clinical waste is disposed of, it must be put into a clinical waste bin and then disposed of by professional personnel. Medical waste bins refer to waste containers containing direct or direct infectiousness, toxicity and other hazards that occur in medical treatment, prevention, health care and other related activities of medical and health institutions. Today, let's talk about how to deal with medical waste.

Damaging Waste:
It should first be put into a puncture-proof and leak-proof hard container, and then put into a medical waste bag with a conspicuous mark, which should be collected by a special person on time at the temporary storage point of medical waste in the hospital, and then collected by the designated medical waste disposal unit of the city for disposal. Disposable syringes, infusion tubes, etc., are required to be disfigured before being discarded to prevent them from being reused.
Pharmaceutical Waste:
It should be handled by a special person in the pharmacy, deposited in the substandard drug area, reported to the drug handling part in a timely manner, and handled according to the fixed opinion of the drug supervision and handling part, and the processing process should be specifically recorded.
Infectious Waste:
It is necessary to put into a medical waste bag with a conspicuous mark, which shall be collected by a special person on time, with a special waste bucket for leakage prevention and spillage prevention to the temporary storage point of the hospital's medical waste, and then the designated medical waste disposal unit of the city will gather for disposal.
Pathological Waste:
Small pieces can be disposed of as infectious waste, and larger or large pathological waste should be sent to the funeral home for burning.
Chemical Waste:
Discarded chemical reagents are generally stored in special storage barrels to a certain amount and then handed over to a special institution designated by the city for disposal. Discarded chlorine-containing disinfectants can be poured directly into the sewer, and glutaraldehyde needs to be neutralized with ammonia before being poured into the sewer for further treatment by the sewage treatment system. When the thermometer and sphygmomanometer containing mercury are scrapped, they should also be handed over to a special department for collective disposal.
