Unlike household waste, medical waste is likely to cause the spread of viruses and serious biological hazards if not handled properly. So, what is the correct way to dispose of medical waste? Today’s article Boyue will introduce it to you in detail.

1. According to the type of medical waste, medical waste should be placed in a package or container that meets the standards, such as needles and other sharps, which should be placed in a sharps box

2. Before containing medical waste, the packaging or container of medical waste shall be carefully inspected to ensure that there is no damage, leakage and other defects.

3. Infectious waste, pathological waste, injury waste, pharmaceutical waste and chemical waste cannot be collected together. Small amounts of pharmaceutical waste can be mixed with infectious waste, but this should be indicated on the label.

4. The management of discarded narcotic, psychotropic, radioactive, toxic and other drugs and their related wastes shall be carried out in accordance with relevant laws, administrative regulations and relevant national regulations and standards.

5. Waste chemical reagents and waste disinfectants in batches of chemical waste shall be disposed of by specialized institutions.

6. When batches of medical equipment such as thermometers and sphygmomanometers containing mercury are scrapped, they shall be disposed of by specialized institutions.

7. High-hazard wastes such as culture media, specimens, strains, and virus preservation solutions of pathogens in medical waste shall first be subjected to pressure steam sterilization or chemical disinfection treatment at the place of generation, and then collected and disposed of as infectious waste.

8. The infectious excreta produced by isolated infectious disease patients or suspected infectious disease patients shall be strictly disinfected in accordance with national regulations, and can only be discharged into the sewage treatment system after reaching the discharge standards stipulated by the state.

9. Medical waste generated by isolated infectious disease patients or suspected infectious disease patients shall be double-wrapped and sealed in time.

10. Infectious waste, pathological waste and damaged waste placed in packaging or containers shall not be removed.

11. When the medical waste contained reaches 3/4 of the packaging or container, an effective sealing method shall be used to make the sealing of the packaging or container firm and tight.

12. When the outer surface of the packaging or container is contaminated with infectious waste, the contaminated area shall be disinfected or a layer of packaging shall be added.
