Surgical site infections are a leading cause of hospital re-admissions, many times due to water quality. Most sterilizers, washers and disinfectors used in the cleaning of surgical instruments are considered medical devices and require treated water within standards set by AAMI and IFU’s of the various device manufacturers. View our guide Water Quality For Processing Of Medical Devices to be used to assist you in the choice of your treatment program and equipment.
AAMI ST108 is intended to help healthcare facilities ensure that the water used to process medical devices is of sufficient quality to prevent the spread of infection. The standard is based on the principles of risk management and takes into account the latest scientific evidence on the relationship between water quality and patient safety.
