Avoid surface changes on medical devices

Topic block 4: Surfaces – Changes

Target group:
Employees and managers from AEMP, CSSD, building services and hygiene officers

Seminar Objective:

This part of the seminar focuses on avoiding daily risks and cost drivers as well as ensuring patient protection by detecting surface changes,
their causes and integrating suitable preventive measures.

Medical devices are subject to countless external influences during their life cycle, from procurement to replacement, which inevitably have negative effects.
These range from visually unsightly to the unusability of the medical device.

In practice, it has been proven that only a holistic approach and analysis of the sterile processing chain enables the necessary solution approaches to eliminate destructive influences on medical devices.

In this seminar block 4, our speaker Ralf Kurzrock will provide you with detailed information on the causes of surface changes on medical devices.
In joint group work, you will identify changes and develop possible solutions that lead to increased patient and user safety.
