Efficacy & effects

Sterilization and disinfection effect of medical devices (endoscopes, anesthesia equipment, etc.)

View approved original text

These medical devices include various types such as lens attachments, endoscopes, anesthesia equipment, ventilators, surgical instruments, gynecological and urological instruments, dental tools and auxiliary devices, syringes, thermometers, etc. These devices must undergo a sterilization process to prevent infection and ensure safe medical procedures. This minimizes the risk of infection for patients and enhances the reliability of medical services. In particular, devices that are used directly inside the body, such as surgical instruments or ventilators, require stricter disinfection. All of these medical devices play an important role in disease prevention and safe treatment of patients.
