[Use of disinfectant solutions at a university clinic].
As part of complex checkups of the antimicrobial regimen the application of disinfecting solutions (Fesia-form, Kombinal asept, Wofasept, Fesia-pin, peracetic acid-spirit SR, and Wofasteril) was studied at 12 institutions of the clinical centre of the medical school of the Friedrich Schiller University Jena from May 1986 to February 1988. It was the aim of the studies to show how properly the disinfecting solutions were applied and whether their concentrations was correct. Despite several discussions and intensive instruction at the workplace the criticized institutions showed positive changes, clearly but not yet satisfactorily, only after the third follow-up inspection. Our results demonstrate a wide gap between theoretical knowledge and application in practice. Possible reasons for that and ways for improvement of the objective and subjective components leading to an incorrect application of disinfectants are discussed.
