Why is Preventing Instrument Contamination Important?
Preventing instrument contamination is essential for several reasons:
It minimizes the risk of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs), which can lead to severe complications and extended hospital stays for patients. It ensures the safety of healthcare providers, reducing their risk of exposure to infectious agents. It upholds the standards of care and maintains the reputation of healthcare facilities. It reduces healthcare costs by preventing the spread of infections and the need for additional treatments.
