Effectiveness of information traceability system on management of cleaning and disinfection of gastrointestinal endoscopes
Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of an information traceability management system in the management of cleaning and disinfection of gastrointestinal endoscopes hence to provide a scientific basis for improving the quality in cleaning and disinfection of the endoscopes.Methods Both of the gastrointestinal endoscopes used in the gastrointestinal endoscopy centre in our hospital between October 2022 and September 2023 were included in this study.The endoscopes were divided into two groups:the 55 gastroscopes and 52 enteroscopes which were cleaned and disinfected with a regular method after use between October 2022 and March 2023 were assigned as a control group.While the 60 gastroscopes and 42 enteroscopes which were cleaned and disinfected with the information traceability management method after use between April 2023 and September 2023 were assigned in a trial group.The two groups were compared with the pass rate of adenosine triphosphate(ATP)bioluminescence test and microbial culture test,as well as the time for cleaning and disinfection.Results The gastrointestinal endoscopes in the trial group showed a significantly higher pass rates with the adenosine triphosphate(ATP)bioluminescence test and microbial culture test,and took significantly shorter time for cleaning and disinfection(all P<0.05).Conclusion The information traceability management system can significantly improve the effectiveness in cleaning and disinfection of the gastrointestinal endoscopes and improve the quality of cleaning and disinfection.
