The correct use of glutaraldehyde in the healthcare environment.

When using and handling glutaraldehyde-based instrument sterilants, it is important to employ appropriate industrial hygiene practices such as wearing the proper personal protective equipment and installing environmental controls. Every healthcare worker who uses glutaraldehyde, or any disinfectant, should be well trained and knowledgeable about the properties of the material(s), their potential harmful effects, and the cleaning/disinfecting procedures of the healthcare facility and infection control department. Appropriate gloves, gowns, and eye protection should be available and worn. If necessary, additional ventilation should be installed to keep glutaraldehyde vapor concentrations below the Threshold Limit Value (TLV), and respiratory protective equipment should be available for emergency situations. Finally, all employees should be aware of spill clean up procedures, which should include written instructions. By keeping employees well trained and informed and by utilizing good industrial hygiene practices, the chances of overexposure to glutaraldehyde-based instrument sterilants will be minimized, and working conditions will be comfortable and safe.
