The document discusses sterilization of medical instruments. It describes three types of instrument tubs used to store small medical items like needles, scissors, and tools for operating. It provides requirements for sterilizing equipment, noting sterilization must be done by heating to 121 degrees Celsius for 30 minutes. Methods of sterilization discussed include dry heating, radiation using ultraviolet light or X-rays, and heating with added moisture like boiling water and sodium carbonate.

TUB INSTRUMENTS As a place tools to be used to help laborcare wound, etc. Type of instrument tub 1. Small Instrument Tub To store needles and medicines
2. Medium Instrument Tub
To store Scissors and gloves
3. Big Instrument Tub
To store the tool for operating purposes How to sterilize tub instrument Sterilization of equipment related to the physical treatment of patients REQUIREMENTS by heating FOR ESTABLISHING at a temperature HEALTH EQUIPMENT of ± 121 ° C for 30 minutes.
The sterilization officer must use personal protective
equipment and master safe sterilization procedures.
The end result of the sterilization process for the
operating room and the isolation room shall be free from living microorganisms. How to sterilize with dry heating techniques
In dry heating systems there is air; It is known that air is
a poor conductor of heat so that sterilization through
dry heating takes a long time, the average time it
takes 45 minutes. At 160 ° C it takes 1 hour, while at 180
° C it takes 30 minutes. How to sterilize with radiation.
In micro biology the widely used light
wave radiation is the emission of ultraviolet light, gamma or X-rays and sunlight. How to sterilize by heating with moisture
Spores that can last for 10 hours at a
temperature of 100 ° C can be turned off in just 30 minutes if boiling water is added with sodium carbonate (Na2 CO3).
