WHY STERILIZATION IS MUST ?

Does everybody wonder why sterilization is a must? Why we should do it? Why don’t we neglect it for one day? Why do extra work rather than treating a patient? One latest horrific real incidence comes to the surface when one local newspaper published this report on 20 may 2019 that 563 patients may have a risk of HIV. Patient at the Dentality Hoddesdon practice in Hertfordshire received letters telling that a hygienist had failed to sterilize dental equipment .All this happens when a patient of Dentality Hoddesdon practice received a letter to get HIV to test after 3 months of their appointment. The practice is run by Dr.Vishaal shah, said that they are very careful with patient care and have always put patient first and as soon as we became aware of behaviour from a hygienist that did not meet the rightful standards we expect from our entire team, we launched a full investigation and escalated the matter to all key authorities. All this happened because of negligence in the sterilization of ultrasonic scaler. It was being treated twice a day when it should have been sterilized after each use. This error was noticed by other staff and reported it and then the hygienist has been dismissed by the practice.

A statement issued by health official said there is a risk of 563 patient of blood infection.Dr.Jorg Hoffman of public health England east said “the risk of contracting hepatitis b, hepatitis c, or HIV is extremely low and testing is being offered as a precautionary measure.

This news shows how negligence can badly affect the lives of innocent people. One question from this report arises that how our health officials work and it took them three months to warn everyone is shameful and most importantly how many more people could have been infected in that time?
