13. HAND WASHING
Joseph Lister, Three steps:
1. Hot water, medicated soap, and a brush for 5
minutes;
2. Apply 90% ethanol for 3–5 minutes with a brush
3. rinse the hands with an “aseptic liquid”.
• In the second half of the 20th century, time
decreased from >10 minutes to 5 minutes. Even
today, 5-minute protocols are common.

16. GLOVES
• Surgical hand preparation still necessary.
• Surgical site contamination, risk of blood borne pathogen
transmission from patients to the surgical team reduction.
• However, 18% (range: 5–82%) of gloves have tiny punctures
after surgery, and more than 80% of cases go unnoticed by
the surgeon. After two hours of surgery, 35% of all gloves
demonstrate puncture, thus allowing water (hence also
body fluids) to penetrate the gloves without using pressure.
A recent trial demonstrated that punctured gloves double
the risk of SSIs.

17. GLOVES (LATEX)
Pros:
• From natural latex
• As soft as second skin.
Cons:
• Allergic reaction, even in children.
• Latex itself and the powder as well.
• Dissolves in solvents.

I-a. Sterilization principles
18. GLOVES (NITRILE)
Pros:
• From synthetic rubbers, low allergy incidence, unknown pt.
• No powder and are easy to handle directly on removal from the box
• Extremely durable and puncture resistant.
• Can withstand exposure to oils, solvents, and chemicals which easily
destroy natural latex gloves.
Cons:
• Not as soft as latex gloves, and are not known for being easy to wear.
• Their strength is a weakness when fine movements and dexterity req.
• Nitrile is also slightly more expensive to produce.

I-a. Sterilization principles
19. GLOVES (VINIL)
Pros:
•Hypoallergenic
•Can be used while applying adhesives.
Cons:
•Not biodegradable.
•Microholes that do not contract and
reduce in diameter as latex does.

24. USES OF AUTOCLAVE
Autoclave is particularly useful for media containing water
that cannot be sterilized by dry heat. It is the method of
choice for sterilizing the following:
1. Surgical instruments
2. Culture media
3. Autoclavable plastic containers
4. Plastic tubes and pipette tips
5. Solutions and water
6. Biohazardous waste
7. Glassware (autoclave resistible)

25. PRECAUTIONS
• Autoclave should not be used for
sterilizing waterproof materials, such as oil
and grease or dry materials, such as
glove powder
• Materials are loaded in, such a way that it
allows efficient steam penetration (do not
overfill the chamber). It is more efficient
and safer to run two separate, uncrowded
loads than one crowded one.

26. PRECAUTIONS…
3. Wrapping objects in aluminium foil is not
recommended because it may interfere with steam
penetration. Articles should be wrapped in materials
that allow steam penetration.
4. Materials should not touch the sides or top of
the chamber
5. The clean items and the wastes should be
autoclaved separately.
6. Polyethylene trays should not be used as they
may melt and cause damage to the autoclave.

John Snow was one of the first physicians to study and calculate dosages for the use of ether and chloroform as surgical anaesthetics, allowing patients to undergo surgical and obstetric procedures without the distress and pain they would otherwise experience. He designed the apparatus to safely administer ether to the patients and also designed a mask to administer chloroform.[16] He personally administered chloroform to Queen Victoria when she gave birth to the last two of her nine children, Leopold in 1853 and Beatrice in 1857 and was still not yet knighted,[17] leading to wider public acceptance of obstetric anaesthesia. Snow published an article on ether in 1847 entitled On the Inhalation of the Vapor of Ether.[
Snow was a skeptic of the then-dominant miasma theory that stated that diseases such as cholera and bubonic plague were caused by pollution or a noxious form of "bad air". The germ theory of disease had not yet been developed, so Snow did not understand the mechanism by which the disease was transmitted. His observation of the evidence led him to discount the theory of foul air. He first published his theory in an 1849 essay, On the Mode of Communication of Cholera,[21] followed by a more detailed treatise in 1855 incorporating the results of his investigation of the role of the water supply in the Soho epidemic of 1854.[22][23]

Sanitation: The policy and practice of protecting health through hygienic measures
Disinfection
Disinfection: Eliminates most pathogens but not necessarily all types of microbes. Disinfection reduces the level of microbial contamination. Chemical disinfection does not kill spores, unlike chemical sterilization. Some common laboratory disinfectants include freshly prepared10% bleach and 70% ethanol.
Sterilization
A sterile surface/object is completely free of living microorganisms and viruses.
Sterilization procedures kill all microorganisms. Methods used in sterilization procedures include heat, ethylene oxide gas, hydrogen peroxide gas, plasma, ozone, and radiation.
Decontamination
Decontamination renders an item or material safe to handle. The level of microbial contamination is reduced enough that it can be reasonably assumed free of risk of infection transmission. Sterilization, disinfection, and antisepsis are forms of decontamination.
Antiseptics and disinfectants both kill microorganisms, and many people use the terms interchangeably. Adding to the confusion, antiseptics are sometimes called skin disinfectants. ... An antiseptic is applied to the body, while disinfectants are applied to nonliving surfaces, such as countertops and handrails
