Esterilización de Productos Sanitarios por Vapor, Volumen I Teoría General - 1 Edición
*** Spanish / español ***
En un hospital o centro sanitario, es necesario que todo producto y material usado para el tratamiento de los pacientes sea absolutamente seguro en su uso ya que el riesgo de contagio de enfermedades debe mantenerse lo más bajo posible. La limpieza, la descontaminación y la esterilización son métodos imprescindibles para combatir este peligro. La demanda para encontrar procedimientos apropiados para el control de infecciones se ha incrementado enormemente, especialmente desde la aparición de enfermedades como el SIDA, de rápida diseminación a escala mundial. Además, enfermedades como la hepatitis B, que pueden ser transmitidas por instrumentos quirúrgicos contaminados, han estimulado la creación de normas y reglamentos más estrictos para los procedimientos de descontaminación y esterilización.
Esta serie de libros, de los que este tomo es el primero, se concentra sobre todo en el método de esterilización más común y seguro de los utilizados habitualmente en los Hospitales y Centros Sanitarios: la esterilización mediante vapor a presión. Un primer paso importante para la mejora de cualquier actividad es la formación del personal implicado en la misma. Recientemente se han publicado las normas europeas sobre la esterilización de productos sanitarios que exigen la formación adecuada para todas aquellas personas, fabricantes, técnicos operadores y/o de mantenimiento, que estén implicados en la esterilización. Es con el objetivo de contribuir a esta formación que se han elaborado estos libros, que esperamos se conviertan en un manual para cualquier persona interesada en el campo de la esterilización. Por esta razón la Asociación Europea para la Esterilización Hospitalaria recomienda su lectura.

Sterilization of Medical Supplies by Steam, Volume 1 General Theory - Second Revised Edition
Sterilization of Medical Supplies by Steam, Volume 1 General Theory - Second Revised Edition
In a hospital or clinic it is necessary that all equipment and materials used for treating patients are absolutely safe for use: the chance for spreading of diseases should be kept as small as possible. Cleaning, decontamination and sterilization are important methods in this battle against this ever present threat. Especially since the fatal disease AIDS became so powerful and spread world wide, the demand for proper procedures for infection control gained momentum enormously. Diseases such as Hepatitis B, known to be transmitted through contaminated surgical instruments, stimulated the need for stricter guidelines for disinfection and sterilization.
This book focuses on the most common and most safe method used for sterilization in the Central Sterile Service Departments in healthcare institutions: sterilization by pressurised high temperature steam.
A first major step to improvement of sterile supply is the training of all personnel involved (technicians, staff and users). Moreover, in the recently published European standards on sterilization, education is required of everybody involved in sterilization, whether it concerns the manufacturer of the sterilizing equipment or the technician maintaining or using it. This series of books provides a foundation needed to fulfil this requirement. Originally intended to educate technical service personnel in remote health institutions, it has grown into a textbook that can be used by anyone interested in sterilization.

The International Federation for Sterile Supply (IFSS) and the World Forum for Hospital Sterile Supply (WFHSS) are pleased to recommend the book to all their members and all others involved in sterilization practices.
