Medical Waste Management

Background: Medical waste can be generated in hospitals or clinics where diagnosis and treatment are conducted. The management of these wastes are of public concern and health threats are associated with such wastes. The study assessed to explore the current situation of medical waste management and level of awareness related to impact of medical waste and its management among the different levels of professionals.Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was done and data were collected from September 2012 to December 2012 at BIRDEM General Hospital. Data were collected by simple random sampling method and semi-structured questionnaire were used in this study. The questionnaire included socio-demographic information, source of hospital waste, description of hospital waste, segregation of waste and assessment of medical waste management system. The questionnaires were interviewed to the doctors, nurses, paramedical staff and cleaners who were related to waste management practices.Results: A total of 186 participants were interviewed in this study. The mean and SD of age was 37.9 ± 10.4 years and the age range from 22 to 65 years respectively. The male and female subjects were 28.0% and 72.0% respectively. Of the total participants, doctors, nurses, paramedical staff and cleaners were 15.1%, 55.4%, 12.9% and 16.7% respectively. To assess the perception of the respondents about hospital waste management, the nurses (100.0%) and cleaners (100.0%) were found in a better position to follow color-coding system (CCS) and to use of protective bags while segregating primary waste, while doctors (21.4%) and paramedical staff’s (29.2%) practice were not encouraging. However, in terms of constituents of medical waste doctors and paramedical staff’s perception was better than the nurses and cleaners. Doctors (92.9%), nurses (96.1%) and paramedical staff (95.8%) were very comfortable about the present color coding system than compared with cleaners (74.2%), although the doctors are less compliant to follow the color-coding system (78.6% compliant) in practice. A substantial proportion of the doctors (71.4%) sometimes put waste in wrong bins as opposed to 51.5% nurses and 33.3% paramedical staff. Few of the respondents would consider the waste if some medical waste is accidentally put to the general waste bin, 85.7% of the doctors, 95.1% nurses, 66.7% paramedical staff and 100% cleaners told that they would consider the waste as medical waste. Nurse’s perception was also better compared to other occupants in sealing waste-bin for disposal. In view of improving the existing waste management system, most of the respondents of different categories were in favor on waste management system. Majority of the respondents think that there should be designated person (97.8%) or rules (97.8%) or monitoring (96.8%) at the administrative level for organizing and managing of waste collection, handling, storage and disposal of waste who will follow a definite rule during all these processes.Conclusion: The study observed that there is lack of knowledge affiliate and practice among the doctors, nurses, paramedical staff and cleaners in segregating hospital waste at the primary source of collection. However, nurses and cleaners were more aware than the doctors and paramedical staff in terms of practice of segregating primary waste. The study also found that perception of waste management was better in doctors and paramedical staff than compared with cleaners and other staffs. To improve the waste management system, it is needed to make policy and regulation guidelines to well-organized system of collecting and treating waste in the hospital.Birdem Med J 2018; 8(1): 56-62

Linear Correlations

Objective of the work was to investigate correlations among hazardous medical waste generation rates and various hospital parameters in 2 departments and a clinic of a 40-bed Hellenic general hospital (Hospital of Ikaria). Medical waste was recorded at the bio-pathology lab, the pathology clinic and the emergency department 4 times daily during a 42 sampling day period (from December 2008 to May 2009). The hospital parameters recorded on a daily basis were the number of examinees, the number of patients that occupied beds and the number of tests performed daily at the clinical bio-pathology laboratory. The dependent variable was the medical waste generation rate (kg day-1) in all cases. Statistically significant linear correlations were established in all departments; the strongest correlation (R2≈0.75) was calculated at the clinical bio-pathology laboratory and the weakest (R2=0.30) at the emergency department. An analysis of variance (Tukey’s t-test) and a nonparametric statistical test revealed that medical waste generation rates from the clinical biopathology laboratory were statistically lower in the weekends compared to weekdays. In addition, medical waste amounts generated by the pathology clinic were statistically lower during December and January compared to February and April.

Medical Waste Management

<p class="0abstract">Special handling is needed for the treatment of the management of solid medical waste, especially the hazardous and toxic wastes (B3) at the hospital so that the expected effects of this medical solid waste can be minimized. At the West Pasaman Regional General Hospital, the management of solid medical waste is carried out using a third party. In 2018, The hospital cooperated with PT Noor Annisa Kemikal with the number of the cooperation agreement Number 660/431 / RSUD-2018 and Number 0302 / NAK / PSM / II / 18 on 01-02-2018 and in 2019, with PT Andalas Bumi Lestari with the Agreement Number of Hazardous and Toxic Waste Treatment Services Number 445/003 / PKS / RSUD-2019 and Number 003.22 / ABL-PKS / II / 2019. In the implementation of management by third parties, the Hospital has to provide a quite large amount of budget for services for the management of solid medical waste by a third party. In order to make the existing budget effective and minimize the Budget absorption, the efforts taken are internal management systems so that some solid medical waste (especially Infusion Tubes) does not need to be handled by the third party and by utilizing existing technological equipment instead. Based on existing data, the West Pasaman Regional General Hospital undertakes efforts to process solid medical waste carried out internally by the Hospital itself by using a sterilization system using the existing technology, namely sterilizers. It is expected that the use of Sterilization technology can yield budget effectiveness approximately IDR. 168,890,000. - per year.  This is done specifically for infusion tubes with a large density and considered the safest to be sterilized and recycled.</p>

The Type I simple cold block device was described by Bullivant and Ames in 1966 and represented the product of the first successful effort to simplify the equipment required to do sophisticated freeze-cleave techniques. Bullivant, Weinstein and Someda described the Type II device which is a modification of the Type I device and was developed as a collaborative effort at the Massachusetts General Hospital and the University of Auckland, New Zealand. The modifications reduced specimen contamination and provided controlled specimen warming for heat-etching of fracture faces. We have now tested the Mass. General Hospital version of the Type II device (called the “Type II-MGH device”) on a wide variety of biological specimens and have established temperature and pressure curves for routine heat-etching with the device.
