Autoclaves in medicine are used to sterilize medical equipment. Autoclaves use steam or heat to kill viruses, bacteria, spores and fungi. Autoclave machines heat equipment to temperatures exceeding 121 degrees Celsius for a prescribed period of time to ensure inactivation of any harmful germs.Autoclaving is also sometimes used to sterilize medical waste prior to disposal.
Sterilizers and autoclaves come in a variety of sizes and styles to suit individual needs and practices. Training in the proper use of autoclaves is necessary. One or more personnel may be trained in methods of sterilizing equipment. Infection control is of utmost importance, due to the fact that improper sterilization of medical equipment may lead to patient infections.
