Research Abstract |
Appropriate disinfection of closed infusion access devices is quite critical to prevent infusion-system related blood stream infection via these devices. There have never been the standard for disinfecting these closed infusion devices. Even in package inserts appropriate procedures of disinfecting devices are not written. This study aimed to develop a new standard to evaluate and validate disinfection procedures of closed device surfaces. Three commercially available devices were used for this study. The following four points were evaluated; Easiness to wipe or scrub the surface of devices by some disinfectants, sealing performance at slit of the devices, durability of slit sealing performance for frequent use and continuous use. As a result, these four points suggest suitable to evaluate the infusion access devices for appropriate disinfection and to develop the standard of validating these infusion devices.
