Is it safe to use glass syringes in rural hospitals? It's just pressure cooker disinfection. I don't know if it's disinfected once for everyone.

Glass syringes have not been eliminated.

Traditional glass syringes can meet the requirements of hygiene and safety as long as they are sterilized at high temperature and high pressure and stored in the right way.

Because it takes a lot of manpower and material resources to do disinfection, storage, collection and distribution, it is not as convenient as disposable syringes, so most hospitals have stopped using this traditional syringe. From the point of view of environmental protection, glass syringes are better.

From the health point of view, as long as it is disinfected at high temperature and high pressure and preserved in the right way, it can meet the requirements of health and safety.

After autoclaving for half an hour, hepatitis A, hepatitis B or other transfected viruses were completely killed. Please rest assured.

However, on February 23rd, 1987, the Ministry of Health issued the Notice of the Ministry of Health on Promoting the Use of Disposable Plastic Syringes, Infusion Devices, Infusion Containers and Needles, suggesting that disposable syringes should be used as much as possible.
