Don’t risk cold hands during kidney transplants

/in , /by

When it comes to kidney transplants, surgeons can experience very cold hands when ice water is used during the procedure to help cool and preserve the donor kidney.

Whilst this ice water reduces the risk of damage to the organ during the transplant process, it can obviously lead to discomfort for the transplant surgeon.

That is where the DryMax Sterile absorbent mat comes in useful, specifically by helping to absorb the icy water, which makes it more comfortable for the hands.

This latex-free mat measures 72cm x 37 cm in size and absorbs from both sides. It can be used flat or folded and can be placed next to the body of the patient to minimise the risk of surgical site infections.

By absorbing up to 6 litres of water or 2.4l of saline and turning it rapidly to gel, the DryMax Sterile mat wicks away cold water quickly, leaving both the patient and the surgeon more comfortable.

The mats can then be disposed of easily in clinical waste, without risk of cross-contamination, slips or delays to theatre turnaround that can result from dripping mat alternatives.

Benefits of the DryMax Sterile mat for kidney transplants

To sum up, the mat offers a range of benefits for the transplant surgeon and theatre team:

  • Maintains a drier surface to help keep the surgeon and patient warm.
  • Suitable for sterile environments and Latex-free.
  • Absorbs and locks in large amounts of fluid.
  • Reduces the risk of cross-contamination caused by drips and spills.
  • Reduces the risk of staff slipping on a wet theatre floor.
  • Increases efficiency as staff can quickly dispose of in clinical waste.
  • Can be easily changed with a minimum of disturbance to the patient.
  • Comes in a handy size that can be lifted and carried without dripping.

Can the DryMax Sterile mat help you?

If you think that the DryMax Sterile can be of use in your transplant unit, why not request some free samples? Just call Cairn Technology on 0333 015 4354 or email info@cairntechnology.com.

 

The Green Operating Room – Managing Spills

/in , , /by

When it comes green operating room considerations for our NHS and private hospital customers, we focus on supplying products that are made with the environment in mind.

Not only does this help hospitals and Trusts in their own move towards Net Zero, it also helps ensure vertical integration of environmental responsibility from manufacturer through to supplier and end user.

In this article, we look at how the manufacture, distribution and design of our absorbent theatre mats pays consideration to minimal carbon emissions and unnecessary waste at all stages.

Absorbent theatre mats

Playing an important role in fluid collection and management within the operating theatre environment, scrub areas and procedure rooms, our range of superabsorbent and anti-skid mats are high-tech products that aim for low level impact on the environment.

  • Manufacturing

Our absorbent mats are manufactured using 100% renewable energy, giving an environmental impact of 0.0 g carbon dioxide (g/kWh).

The raw materials for the mats are sourced locally, minimising the number of miles travelled by component suppliers.

The mats are then manufactured using cellulose raw material from forests certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC). The FSC is a non-profit organization that provides solutions to help safeguard the world’s forests and tackle deforestation, climate, and biodiversity challenges.

A focus on waste reduction during the manufacturing process also saw a 30% reduction in combustible waste during an 8-month period.

  • Distribution

Once made and ready to be shipped from Europe to our warehouse in the UK, loads are optimised to ensure that as many mats as possible are shipped in one load.

As the mats are thin and lightweight and do not contain unnecessary cellulose fluff material, a large number of individual mats can be shipped in the same vehicle.

When it comes to storing and shipping mats onto our customers, we also see keeping carbon emissions to a minimum as an important goal.

As our Carbon Reduction Plan for 2024 shows, we managed to bring our Scope 1 emissions down to zero through carbon offsetting. We achieved this by investing in the Carbon FootprintTM UK Tree Planting Scheme.

As we wanted to support a local initiative, our funding will help support the planting of trees in the Yorkshire and Humber region in school locations, educate children and support local wildlife habitats.

Other measures we take to minimise carbon emissions include combining shipments to the same customer at the same time, wherever practicable; using a hybrid working model that reduces staff travel to the office; and changing much of our company car fleet to hybrid of fully electric vehicles.

  • Usage

There is no doubt that the onus is increasingly on hospitals to reduce the amount of waste in operating theatres and hospital departments.

As a result, our superabsorbent floor mats are ideal for minimising waste, with one T-Mat absorbing the equivalent fluid of 13 standard inco sheets.

Our DryMax XL anti-skid floor mats also help to minimise waste, as they can be cut to the exact size required. Available as individual mats or on a 50-metre roll and dispenser, this means that you only need to use exactly the amount of mat you need on each occasion.

Interested in a mat trial for your green operating room?

We offer a range of superabsorbent and anti-skid floor mats, as well as sterile mats for use against the patient’s skin, and hybrid mats for specific procedures such as arthroscopies.

4 Reasons to Choose Hupfer Instrument Baskets

/in , /by

If you are looking for instrument baskets for your sterile services department, it can be difficult to discern the quality of one brand from another.

So we were very pleased to become a distributor for a brand that is manufactured to a high standard by a company which is deeply conscious of the environmental impact of its products.

Here are just 4 reasons why we think you will find Hupfer instrument baskets are worth a look:

  1. Versatile to use

You can use Hupfer baskets in autoclaves or washers specifically designed for medical equipment.

The baskets are built to withstand stringent sterilisation methods and high temperatures of up to a maximum of 150 degrees Celsius. They are also compatible with detergents formulated to clean medical instruments.

You can choose from a wide range of sizes and configurations to help organise your medical supplies and reduce search time. Alternatively, you can opt for Hupfer’s stackable baskets to save storage space in crowded medical environments.

  1. Designed for optimum performance

Hupfer’s instrument baskets are robotically made from high-quality electropolished stainless steel.

This provides a smooth surface that:

  • avoids the risk of snags to hands, soft packaging and instrument surfaces,
  • makes cleaning and sterilisation easier through decreased likelihood of bacterial adhesion and improved fluid flow over the surface,
  • improves corrosion resistance and reduces wear so optimising the product lifespan.
  1. Focussed on Quality

Hupfer takes quality control seriously to deliver the very best products for your needs. Its quality management system is certified as compliant with DIN ISO 13485 and its products comply with the current European Regulation on medical devices, MDR 2017/745.

  1. Considerate to the Environment

Hupfer’s ‘End-of-Life Buy Back Scheme’ helps hospitals to reduce waste and cost when it comes to investing in instrument baskets.

As soon as Hupfer stainless-steel instrument baskets come to the end of their working life, Hupfer deducts their scrap value from the hospital’s new quote and recycles them.

Or if the hospital doesn’t want to order any more new baskets, Hupfer will help the hospital to find a local recycling company to ensure recovery.

Supporting Sterile Services Departments with quality instruments

/in , , , /by

The role of Sterile Service Departments (SSDs) is critical to the smooth running of operating theatres across the UK.

The timely decontamination and turnaround of full sets of instruments that are safe to use and perform to their optimum ability is critical to the smooth running of surgical lists.

But unfortunately, too many SSDs and instrument managers are being hampered by underinvestment in quality instruments, leading to a number of significant issues.

Damaged or missing instruments can cause a range of problems, not just for the sterile services department, but also for surgeons and patients:

  • Surgical procedures can be delayed or cancelled.
  • Hospital stays may be extended, aggravating bed-blocking situations.
  • Interoperative instrument breakage can put patients at risk.
  • Inability to effectively decontaminate instruments risks surgical site infections.

 

A sizeable problem for Sterile Service Departments

An audit carried out by the ABHI on 2020(1) showed that out of 32,000 instruments checked at 48 hospitals, less than 20% were in a good enough condition to be used.

In fact, 31% of the instruments needed to be replaced, 32% needed to be repaired, and 18% had issues with surface finish, including corrosion.

Another report, by Efthymiou and AR Cale(2) in 2022 revealed that surgical equipment failed in 92% of cardiac cases, 80% of which were surgical instruments. The report concluded that there may be as many as 1500 incidents a year of patient harm caused poor quality instruments.

 

Cheap reusable surgical instruments

There are many makes of resusable surgical instruments that are made from high quality stainless steel, are designed for optimum cleaning and come with warranties lasting decades. However, there is no doubt that the cost of investing in these upfront can be significant.

Budgetary pressures can mean that SSDs and instrument managers are forced to order much cheaper instruments. Unfortunately, these often come with only a one- or two-year warranty They are also made with lower quality stainless steel and have a more rudimentary design. This in turn means that decontamination is more difficult and damage more likely.

High quality instruments in contrast are often designed to optimise performance, decontamination and maintenance, even to the extent that their parts can be taken apart during servicing, allowing them to be restored to their original levels of functionality.

 

Carbon Footprint Considerations

Investing in good quality instruments also makes sense for the NHS’s plans to attain Net Zero. The NHS Carbon Footprint Plus considers an expanded scope of emissions, covering the products procured from its 80,000 suppliers. Sourcing cheap disposable or reusable instruments from thousands of miles away is not a sustainable approach for the long term.

Short-lived instruments also lead to more waste, not only in terms of instrument disposal, but also as a result of the increased number of manufacturing processes involved in making them.

Of course, having safe and complete instrument sets can be enhanced through consistent auditing, maintenance and training, but sterile services managers and instrument managers can only do so much with the instruments that they are given.

As the ABHI 2020 audit concluded, “Investment in the replacement of aged surgical instrument inventory should be considered as a priority for NHS spending” and “The procurement of surgical instruments should be based on overall quality and value, with the demonstration of strong ethical and resilient supply chains recognised and rewarded in purchasing decisions.”

In this way, we can support our Sterile Service Departments to help ensure that instrument performance and availability is always optimised.

Are inco pads increasing operating theatre costs and waste?

/in , , /by

Hospitals that are concerned about operating theatre costs sometimes use inco pads or incontinence pads to absorb spills on operating theatre floors.

These pads do not offer a particularly high level of absorbency and are prone to dripping when lifted for disposal.

However, they are sometimes seen as a much more cost-effective alternative to absorbent mats that are specifically designed for this purpose.

So, we thought that we would take a look at our superabsorbent T-Mat, to see how it compares like for like with a standard inco pad that is currently on the market.

 

Busting the myth of cheaper inco pads

We took one of our T-Mats, which measures 72cm x 36cm and absorbs up to 8.5 litres of fluid and compared it with an inco pad of a similar size – 75cm x 57cm -which absorbs 0.67 litres of fluid.

In terms of per-mat cost, the inco pad is the clear winner, with a single T-Mat costing six times more than a single inco pad.

However, you would need to use around 13 inco pads to get a similar level of fluid collection as a single T-Mat.

This means that you would have to spend more than twice the amount on inco pads as you would on T-Mats to get the same amount of fluid absorbency on your operating theatre floor.

 

Reducing theatre consumable waste

The NHS Carbon Footprint Plus includes a commitment to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from supplier products, as outlined in Scope 3 of The Greenhouse Gas Protocol.

So as the NHS moves towards Net Zero, the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions generated from the manufacturing, shipping and disposal of theatre consumables becomes more pressing.

Consuming 13 times as many absorbent pads by choosing inco pads over a superabsorbent mat such as the T-Mat will clearly lead to a much larger carbon footprint, which now goes against the ethos and objectives of NHS environmental policy.

 

Other drawbacks of inco pad use

As well as costing you more overall, the use of inco pads in hospital operating theatres can also create particular risks.

Unlike our superabsorbent T-Mat, they are not able to lock in fluid and turn it to gel for easy non-drip disposal.

A dripping inco pad being lifted up for disposal in clinical waste not only risks cross-contamination but also creates slip hazards in the operating theatre.

What’s more, there is greater likelihood of drips and pools of fluid on the theatre floor after the operation, slowing down theatre turnaround time whilst the floor is being mopped and dried.

 

Trial it for yourself to see a reduction in operating theatre costs

If you are currently using inco pads in your operating theatres and would like to trial the T-Mats to see how they compare, you can get some free samples and see the results for yourself.

Women in Surgery in England – looking back, moving forward

/in , /by

The number of women in surgery in England is growing, but there are still significant issues facing female surgeons.

According to the Royal College of Surgeons in England, the ratio of male to female consultant surgeons in the UK is approximately 8:1.

This disparity between male and female surgeons is marked. It reflects that fact that for many centuries women were barred by men from practicing surgery in the UK.

Only in 1876, did parliamentary legislation open up medical and university education for women. By the end of that century, women were able to study medicine at almost all British universities.

By 1919 there were only four women Fellows of the Royal College of Surgeons of England; 90 years later this figure was 1184.

Women in surgery today

Today, more women than ever are considering medicine as a career. In fact, according to the Universities and College Admissions Service (UCAS), in 2020, 64% of people accepted on to medicine and dentistry degree courses in the UK were women.

The numbers of female surgeons are also rising. Based on 2022 data from NHS Digital, in 1991, 3% of consultant surgeons in the UK were female and this rose to 14.7% in 2022. In terms of surgical specialisms, the highest percentage of female surgeons are in paediatric surgery at almost 30%, followed by plastic surgery at around 22%.

Issues facing today’s female surgeons

Whilst surgeons can already work long and unsociable hours, this lifestyle can prove particularly difficult for women who need to take on the main responsibility for parenting.

In 2021, the Kennedy Review made a key recommendation to deliver a flagship Parents in Surgery project to help current and prospective surgeons balance parenthood and a surgical career.

Then in 2022 the RCS England commissioned the Nuffield Trust to carry out an independent review of the impact of parental or caring responsibilities on pursuing a career in surgery.

All of this will hopefully help female surgeons to find a workable and healthier balance between providing their surgical expertise, whilst having time to properly care for their children.

Sadly, another issue facing female surgeons that has recently been highlighted in the media is that fact that many are experience sexual harassment or assault in the workplace.

According to a study published in the British Journal of Surgery, almost one in three female surgeons working in the NHS said they have been sexually assaulted in the past five years.

This has led the chair of the Women in Surgery forum at the Royal College of Surgeons of England to call for the creation of a national implementation panel to oversee action on the report’s recommendations and for incidents of sexual misconduct to be independently investigated.

In addition, a Guardian/British Medical Journal investigation found that more than 35,600 “sexual safety incidents” had been recorded in NHS hospitals in England over the past five years.

Clearly, these sorts of findings may in themselves put off some very talented women from entering the profession or indeed being able to continue in it.

Women together – support for female surgeons

Thankfully, there is a strong support network for women specialising in surgery. It’s called Women in Surgery (WinS) and is a national initiative dedicated to encouraging, enabling and inspiring women to fulfil their surgical career ambitions.

By registering for the WinS network you can connect with over 6,000 women from all career grades and specialties across the UK to collaborate, network and find support. To find out more and how to join click here.

 

 

 

Green Theatre Checklist Explained – How to Make Your Theatre More Environmentally Friendly

/in , , /by

The Intercollegiate Green Theatre Checklist was developed by a number of UK and Ireland surgical colleges. It provides some guidelines for how operating theatres can cut down on their carbon emissions and work towards sustainability in healthcare.

In this post we’ll provide an essential overview of the Green Theatre Checklist, and the guidance it contains.

A Brief Introduction to the Green Theatre Checklist

Studies show that surgery is a carbon intensive process. A single operation is estimated to generate up to 170kgCO2e, which is about the same as driving 450 miles in a petrol car.

The Green Theatre Checklist is divided into four sections:

  • Anaesthetic care
  • Surgery preparation
  • Intraoperative practice
  • Postoperative measures

Each section contains a number of guidelines and policies to support surgical teams in working towards better environmental, social, and economic impacts.

How To Make Operating Theatres More Environmentally Friendly

Below we’ll provide a quick overview of the guidelines contained within each section of the Green Theatre Checklist.

Anaesthetic Care

  • Source anaesthesia from your local area wherever possible.
  • Limit your Nitrous Oxide use to specific cases, and regularly check your equipment for possible leaks.
  • For inhalation anaesthesia, use sevoflurane instead of isoflurane, as it has a lower “global warming potential”.
  • Switch to reusable equipment wherever possible (such as laryngoscopes, underbody heaters, slide sheets, and trays.)
  • Minimise your drug waste. Introduce the policy: “Don’t open it unless you need it.”

Surgery Preparation

  • Switch to reusable textiles wherever possible, including theatre hats, sterile gowns, patient drapes, and trolley covers.
  • Reduce your water and energy consumption. Install automatic or pedal controlled water taps and adopt a “rub not scrub” approach: After your first water scrub of the day, use alcohol rub for all subsequent hand hygiene procedures.
  • Avoid clinically unnecessary interventions, such as the use of antibiotics and catheterisation.

Intraoperative Practice

  • Review and rationalise your surgeon preference lists, your single-use surgical packs, and your instrument sets. In each case, separate the essential vs. the optional, identify the surplus, and only open what you need when you need it.
  • Avoid any unnecessary equipment, again taking the approach: “Don’t open it unless you need it.”
  • Switch to reusable, hybrid, or remanufactured equipment wherever possible.
  • Switch to low carbon alternatives wherever appropriate (e.g., skin sutures instead of clips).

Postoperative Measures

  • Recycle wherever possible or use the lowest carbon appropriate waste streams. Use domestic or recycling waste streams for all packaging and use the non-infectious waste streams unless there’s a clear risk of infection.
  • Encourage active equipment maintenance and aim to repair damaged reusable equipment rather than replacing it.
  • When the theatre’s not in use, turn off all lights, computers, ventilation, and temperature control.

Access the Full Green Theatre Checklist

For more, you can access and download the full Intercollegiate Green Theatre Checklist.

Disclaimer – Infection Control Procedures

Bear in mind that these are just suggestions. They should not override your existing policies and procedures.

For example, working towards a green theatre should not come at the expense of infection prevention and control. Standard Infection Control Precautions and most PPE guidelines stress the importance of using disposable products so as to reduce the chances of cross-infection.

In this way, the Green Theatre Checklist seems to contradict infection control guidelines, as the checklist recommends switching to reusable equipment wherever possible.

As an operating theatre manager, you’ll have to carry out a thorough risk assessment so as to ensure that none of your Green Theatre policies compromise your infection prevention and control measures.
