The solution for maximum safety in podiatry: Professional instrument disinfection

Instrument disinfection is an essential part of the daily work life of a podiatrist. With you, mainly either concentrates or ready-to-use solutions for instrument disinfection are used.

• Instrument disinfection concentrates are - as the name suggests - highly concentrated solutions that are diluted with water to produce a disinfection solution. These solutions are in most cases highly effective and can kill a wide range of microorganisms. However, they require correct handling and dosage.
• On the other hand, there are ready-to-use solutions that are ready-mixed in the correct concentration and as a result are ready for immediate use. These ready-to-use instrument disinfection solutions are in most cases easier to handle and dose.

Podiatric instruments and drills are best disinfected with a special chemical disinfectant designed instead and approved for use in medical furnishings. We carry various ready-to-use solutions and concentrates for instrument disinfection that are suitable for surgical instruments or rotating stainless steel drills, for example. Many are also suitable for use in an ultrasonic bath. One possible way to clean or disinfect podological instruments is the immersion bath method. In order to reliably kill all germs, the instruments remain with you in the decontaminating solution for a certain time.

Why disinfecting instruments and drills in podiatry is then so important

In podiatry, instruments such as scissors and tweezers along with various rotating drills are used to professionally treat the skin of the feet along with the toenails. If Podiatry Drills and instruments are not cleaned and disinfected accurately, infections can potentially be transmitted.

Therefore, regardless of the choice of disinfectant, it is essential to properly clean and disinfect the instruments used. Whether they are nippers and scissors, nail instruments, files and rasps or rotary instruments such as burs, grinders or polishers, following a strict disinfection routine is essential in everyday podiatry practice to minimise the risk of infection.

Careful washing of instruments and professional disinfection, along with the use of suitable gloves and personal protective equipment, are just as much part of the preventive actions as the correct handling and storage of agents for instrument disinfection.
