Study of bacterial contamination in operative halls

Abstract

Bacterial Swabs was taken from (412) sample ,the operative halls and Emergency operations in the hospital Diwaniya,for teaching and work took 6 month (from march until August 2010) included sample taken from(the beds of operation,table of anesthesia, system of draw fluid(sucker).the walls and floor of the hall, gauze, disinfectants, sterilization AMD clothing, surgical instruments).The study showed that the rate of contamination of the first terminal operations (14.52%) and contamination of the second terminal operations (12.82%) and the percentage of contamination of emergency room operations (31.91%).The study showed that the highest percentage of pollution recorded in the lounge operations were primarily in the walls and floor of the lounge (34.21%), followed by the beds of operation by (23.8%) followed by a sucker (16.66%) and table anesthesia (6.52%) and gauze (3.3%). The surgical instruments and sterilization AMD clothing, disinfectants and antiseptics in which the proportion of sterilization (100%).The Hall of operations per second, the pollution as follows:- Walls and floor (31.04%), followed by the by (21.42%) and table anesthesia (11.53%), and then a sucker (6.66%) the gauzes and surgical instruments were sterile. The percentage of pollution in the hall of emergency operations as follows: - A sucker (50%) and the walls and floor (44.44%), and surgical instruments (41.28%), followed by a Hall beds and AMD sterilize clothing (33.33) each table anesthesia (20%) and gauzes (16.66%).The study showed that the rate of microbial contamination of cluster in the lounge operations first is (86.11%) and other germs by (13.89%), the percentage of second hall operations was (86.67%) compared to (13.33%) for bacteria other, with the highest proportion of hall emergency operations (100%).This study showed that the types of bacteria circulating in the lounge operations are Staphylococcus , where contamination is highest in relation to the rest of the other germs (bacteria, fungi), where contamination is highest of Staphylococcus epidermidis (64.22%) and Staphylococcus aureus (23.46%) and Staphylococcus saprophyticus (12.32%).
