?:definition
  • Installations designed for thorough cleaning and disinfecting (i.e., scrubbing) of the hands and arms before surgery or other procedures that require a certain level of cleansing by participating personnel in order to reduce or prevent the transmission of infections to patients. These stations typically consist of multiple stainless steel sinks with seamless construction without crevices. They include several faucets; cold and hot water supply; water filters; soap and brush dispensers; and temperature, water pressure, and/or time controls. They may also include ultraviolet lamps. Surgical scrub stations are usually operated using automated infrared sensors, knee controls, and/or timers; they are used by surgeons and other medical staff before approaching a designated sterile area (e.g., the surgical suite).
