Synopsis: |
Choice Framework for local Policy and Procedures CFPP 01-01 offers best practice guidance on the whole decontamination cycle including the management and decontamination of surgical instruments used in acute care. Part C covers standards and guidance on steam sterilization. The technical concepts are based on European (EN), International (ISO) and British (BS) Standards used alongside policy and broad guidance. In addition to the prevention of transmission of conventional pathogens, precautionary policies in respect of human prion diseases including variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD) are clearly stated. Advice is also given on surgical instrument management related to surgical care efficiencies and contingency against perioperative non-availability of instruments. |
