Description

In this episode of Articles On-The-Go, Hank Balch examines the menagerie of items being sterilized in surgical instrument trays and the reasons they should be left out. "Because they have no validation and no IFUs, they have no place in our sterilizers or on our sterile storage shelves, and definitely no place touching our patients." Tune in to hear what surprising items show up on the list! #sterileprocessing #wefightdirty #safetyfirst #sterilization
