Abstract:

Background and Objective: Hospitals are the center of infection transmission due to their special conditions. In order to reduce microorganisms from the equipment and in the hospital environment, disinfection and sterilization methods are required. The aim of this study was to investigate the types of disinfectants used in Kashan hospitals. Materials and Methods: In this descriptive cross-sectional study, Kashan hospitals were selected in 2019 by simple random sampling and the relevant checklist was completed. The required information was collected and analyzed by interviewing an environmental health expert and observing different parts of the hospital and visiting the disinfectant warehouse. Results: Due to the type of services provided and the possible resistance of the existing microorganisms, the studied hospitals use certain types of disinfectants. Bleach and sayasept- HP were the most widely used disinfectants. Conclusion: The results showed that since the disinfection is performed by service personnel and help of health workers, informing them about the incidence and prevalence of nosocomial infections, loss of life and financial damage caused by these diseases is very important. In addition, the effective roles of these individuals in the optimal elimination of environmental pathogens and consequently the reduction of nosocomial infections are crucial.
