Surgical site infections (SSI) are a leading cause of complications and mortality in patients admitted to hospitals low resource countries. These largely result lack proper sterilization. Sterilization requires high heat pressure typically provided by gas powered autoclaves that may not be readily available. Unclean surgical equipment leads growth bacteria patients. This paper examines the effe...

Any hospital or facility in which surgery and other invasive procedures are performed should have accommodations for cleaning, decontaminating, disinfecting, and sterilizing instruments, equipment, and other essential supplies that are used for patient procedures. Sterilization is essential to reducing or preventing the risk of surgical site infections. This is a collaborative process and shoul...

As the world is facing a Covid-19 pandemic, this virus teaches lesson about importance of on-site disinfection. On-site disinfection/sterilization with real-time monitoring biomedical waste generated from medical facilities mandatory to prevent hospital-acquired infection (HAI). In study, life cycle assessment two technologies, i.e., microwave (radiation-based) and autoclave (steam-based) were ...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES This is a case report of a 5-mm trocar-site large bowel herniation following laparoscopic tubal sterilization. During laparoscopic sterilization, the 5-mm port site was closed initially. Large bowel herniation was recognized at the end of the case and managed immediately by laparoscopically reducing the hernia and closing the port site without any short- or long-term c...
