Instrument reprocessing in medical clinics

Dr Johanna Kubek Dermatology Clinic

„Our entire clinic team is delighted with the intuitive operation of MELAtherm and Euroklav for the highest levels of safety in the instrument decontamination process.“

My personnel at both locations of our clinic provide treatment for chronic and acute dermatological cases as well as laser therapies, allergological diagnosis and outpatient surgery. We need to be able to take a high standard of infection control for granted. After having used disposable / single-use medical instruments, we took the decision, based on grounds of costs and quality, to establish a dedicated decontamination room.

The MELAtherm washer-disinfector and the Euroklav Class S steam sterilizer are perfectly aligned to our new instrument reprocessing procedures. The MELAG System satisfies all our needs, even on days when we treat up to 70 patients.

Annette Müller Gynaecology Clinic

"Safety paired with quick and easy operation. We are delighted with the MELAG System Solution and MELAtherm for automated cleaning and disinfection."

The perfect alignment of the MELAG washer-disinfector and our MELAG steam sterilizer saves considerable time and effort for our team. We are able to provide approval to semi-critical (non-surgical) instruments such as specula and use them for the treatment of our patients directly after automated cleaning and disinfection in MELAtherm 10. Please comply with national standards.

Vera Wille Podiatry Practice

„The MELAG System Solution, individually tailored to my practice requirements, guarantees traceable processes and maximum patient safety.”

Protection against infection and meticulous hygiene workflows are just as important in podiatric practices as they are in medical or dental facilities. In order to protect patients even better from infection with pathogens, I have decided to use the MELAG System Solution including automated cleaning and disinfection with MELAtherm.

I love my MELAtherm washer-disinfector! For years, I had decontaminated my instruments manually with ultrasonic baths and a disinfection tub. It was a complete waste of time. Instrument reprocessing with a washer-disinfector is so much more time-saving and safer.

With the MELAG System Solution, I reprocess the instruments legally compliant according to international standards. The fast cycle times of the washer-disinfector and the autoclave ensure that my instruments are re-usable within the shortest possible time. Efficiency, easy handling and reliability of the reprocessing workflows are extremely important in daily practice.

Reni Otte Podiatry Practice

„It is imperative that our instruments are always in perfect condition when using them in patient treatment: this is possible as we use MELAG devices for instrument reprocessing.“

Opened in June 2012, our podiatry practice focusses on medical podiatry and complex treatments. This requires the deployment of specialist practices and instruments. The modern practice facilities lay the groundwork for high quality treatment.

The introduction of new hygiene requirements meant that I wanted to update my practice facilities before a planned merger in May 2015. Podiatry practices are confronted not only by increased hygiene requirements, but the need for efficient and economical reprocessing workflows. The aligned products MELAtherm, MELAseal and Vacuklav help us to provide the best response to this task. The investment in the decontamination room serves to protect our patients, whilst bringing considerable advantages for the work of my entire practice team.
