Transcript: Biomedical Waste What effect does the contamination of biomedical waste have on water? 1 Present all the details Water 2 In the late 1980s there were a series of syringe wash ups on beaches along the East Coast of the United States, which were mistakenly attributed to health care facilities. The federal Medical Waste Tracking Act (MWTA) was passed and the EPA attempted to set standards for managing the infectious waste component of medical waste that they renamed regulated medical waste. Few states adopted its stringent guidelines. The MWTA expired in the early 1990s, making each state responsible for establishing its own classification and management guidelines for medical waste. There are very few documented cases of disease transmission from contact with medical waste. The notable exception is needle stick, or "sharps" injuries. Paralleling the concern over beach wash ups of medical waste, was a growing awareness of the increase in HIV-AIDS and other cases of infectious diseases being diagnosed and treated in health care settings. Noting that there are multiple risks inherent in medical waste including toxic chemicals and radioactive materials. Medical waste in the ocean creates biohazards. Medical waste is defined by the Environmental Protection Agency as anything that contains bodily fluids or wastes, such as surgical gloves, needles, swabs, body organ cultures and even bloody bandages. Medical waste can come from hospitals or veterinary clinics, as well as laboratories and research facilities involving stem cell research or those creating chemicals or medicines for health care use. Sometimes, such types of waste end up in the ocean, and are potential hazards, not only to the ocean environment, but to humans who come into contact with it. Some medical waste in the ocean may be contaminated with blood or other body fluids of individuals diagnosed with acquired immune deficiency syndrome, more commonly known as AIDS. Think Quest, a student resource and information portal, believes that many medical companies and facilities around the globe wantonly toss medical waste and garbage into the ocean for easy disposal. 3 All separated design elements Customize: The World is Watching Where are You? ?

BIOMEDICAL WASTE MANAGEMENT

Transcript: ABSTRACT The waste produced in the course of health care activities carries a higher potential for infection and injury than any other type of waste. The present scenario of biomedical waste (BMW) management in Indian hospitals is grim. However there is an emerging concern regarding biomedical waste management, particularly as a result of notification of Bio Medical Waste (Management and Handling) Rules, 1998 which makes it mandatory for the health care establishments to ensure that such waste is handled without any adverse effect to human health and environment. This presentation intends to create awareness amongst the personnel involved in health care services. Bio-medical waste (BMW) means any waste generated during the diagnosis, treatment or immunization of human beings or animals or in research activities pertaining thereto or in the production or testing of biologicals, including categories mentioned in Schedule I of BMW Management (BMWM) and Handling Rules 1998 In 2011, it was estimated that gross generation of BMW in India was 4,05,702 kg/day of which only 2,91,983 kg/day was disposed, which means that almost 28% of the wastes was left untreated. Objectives of Bio Medical Waste Management To prevent transmission of disease from patient to patient From patient to health worker and vice versa To prevent injury to the health care worker and workers and workers in support services, while handling biomedical waste To prevent general exposure to the harmful effects of the cytotoxic, genotoxic and chemical biomedical waste. Due to increase in the population, the amount of biomedical waste generation also increased it requires attention.. Within the domain of municipal solid waste, biomedical waste acquires a special dimension, since it is infectious and hazardous. Biomedical waste is generated in hospitals, nursing homes, clinics, medical laboratories, blood banks, animal houses etc. Such a waste can also be generated at home if health care is being provided there to a patient (e.g. injection, dressing material etc.) Impacts of BMW on social environment and health It is important to understand the impacts of biomedical waste (BMW) on the social environment and on health. Improper management of BMW could lead to infections and other health hazards. The infectious agents can enter a healthy body through Puncture, Abrasion or cut in the skin; Through mucous membranes; Inhalation; Ingestion. BMW rules were formed under Environment Protection Act, 1986 by the Ministry of Environment and Forest; Government of India. Biomedical Waste Management and Handling rules,1998 implemented on 20th July 1998. Further amendments of the Biomedical Waste (Management & Handling) Rules 1998, were done by Government of India in the year 2000 , 2003 , 2008 & 2011. In accordance with these rules, it is the duty of every “occupier” i.e. a person who has the control over the institution or its premises, to take all steps to ensure that waste generated is handled without any adverse effect to human health and environment. The hospitals, nursing homes, clinics, dispensaries, pathological laboratories etc., are therefore required to set in place the biological waste treatment facilities. It is however not incumbent that every institution has to have its own waste treatment facility. The rule also envisages that common facility or any other facilities can be used for waste treatment. However it is incumbent on the occupier to ensure that the waste is treated with in a period of 48 hours. Bio Medical Waste (Management and Handling) Rules have SIX schedules. NOTES Colour coding of waste categories with multiple treatment options as defined in Schedule I, shall be selected depending on treatment option chosen, which shall be as specified in Schedule I. Waste collection bags for waste types needing incineration shall not be made of chlorinated plastics. Categories 8 and 10 (liquid) do not require containers/bags. Category 3 if disinfected locally need not be put in containers/bags. STANDARDS FOR WASTE AUTOCLAVING STANDARDS FOR INCINERATORS STANDARDS OF MICROWAVING STANDARDS FOR DEEP BURIAL Specifically colored plastic bag should be kept in its container. Bins and bags should bear the bio hazard symbol. As soon as three fourth of the bag is full of waste it should be removed from the container, tied tight with a plastic string and properly labeled. Under no circumstances, an infectious waste should be mixed with the non-infectious waste. Collection of disposable items (syringes, I/V bottles, catheters, rubber gloves etc) should be undertaken when they have been mutilated (cut) chemically disinfected (by dipping in 1% hypochlorite solution for 30min.) Syringe barrel should always be separated from the plunger before disinfection. .Needles should be destroyed with needle destroyer. All other sharps must be strongly disinfected (chemically) before they are shredded or finally disposed. Sharps should be kept in puncture proof containers and

Once a medical machine breaks down or becomes out-dated, allow for the machine to be used for medical students to practice or recycle the parts Innovation Design products that will either readily decompose without harming the environment or make them reusable. Pharmaceuticals Invent new drugs that not only temporarily remove the illness but instead begins permanent immunity. Biomedical Waste is treated by steam, incineration, or an alternative process approved by the department, prior to disposal. Treatment should occur within 30 days of collection from the generator. Biomedical Waste Why the current regulations do not solve the problem of biomedical waste Current Regulations An alternative treatment process, such as chemical, gas, dry heat, or microwave shredding, should be considered by the department upon receipt of a written request.

The report stated, were Total Financial Cost of Motor Vehicular Accident Patients Admitted, Wound Healing Properties of Guyabano Leaf and Malunggay Leaf Extract, Biological Activities of Pili Pulp Extracts , Antimicrobial Screening, and Histological Study of Orthosiphon aristatus (Balbas Pusa) and Feasibility of a Web-Based Health Status Monitoring and Decision Support System for Public Elementary Pupils of the Province of Albay Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Nuclear Regulatory Commission GROUP ensuring proper segregation at the source, the use of accurate packaging appropriate color coding, proper in-house movement of waste designating waste storage areas and ensuring safe disposal. Radioactive wastes are wastes that contain radioactive material. hospitals, health centers, clinics (medical, dental, veterinary), pharmaceutical laboratories, blood banks, funeral parlors, medical schools, and research institutions. Pharmaceutical waste- waste medicines, packaging contaminated with medicines and items used to handle and administer medicines Biomedical waste can be managed properly by: All individuals exposed to hazardous health care waste are potentially at risk Soiled Waste: Cloth containing blood stains, blood coated cotton balls, soiled plasters. Solid Waste: Waste generated from disposable items like tubing and catheters. Summarize: Biomedical wastes may be categorized as follows: CSU-CHS study on biomedical waste in reg’l shortlist for research grant Microbiology and Biotechnology Waste: Wastes from laboratory cultures, live or attenuated vaccines, human and animal cell culture used in research, wastes from biological toxins. Waste Sharps: Needles, syringes, blades, scalpels. Human Anatomical Waste: Human body parts, tissues and organs.. human tissue or blood, including heavily soaked materials. Animal Waste: Animal body parts, carcasses, excreta, bleeding parts and wastes generated at veterinary hospitals. Bio-medical wastes may be generated from any of the following facilities : History Discarded Medicines 3 Laws: 1.) Republic Act No. 6969 (Toxic and Hazardous Substances and Nuclear Wastes Control Act of 1990) 2.) RA No. 8749 (Philippine Clean Air Act of 1999) 3.) RA No. 9003 (Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000) The DENR is in close coordination with Department of Health in enforcing concrete and specific steps to tackle the wastes generated by health care establishments. The Clean Air Act promotes the use of alternative non-burn technologies such as size reduction and compaction, autoclave and microwave for thermal technologies, which are among the most common technologies used in the country today. Bio-medical wastes basically refer to all materials, biological or non-biological, that are discarded in any health care facility and not intended for any other use such as: human body parts, tissues and organs as well as animal body parts, carcasses, excreted bodily wastes, parts containing blood and wastes generated at veterinary hospitals. Liquid Waste: Waste generated from laboratory housekeeping activities. Incineration Waste: Ash generated from incineration of biomedical waste. Chemical Waste: Chemicals used for disinfection. NEWS Laws in proper management of hospital wastes World Health Organization (WHO), in its classification of waste, classifies Bio-Medical Waste into the following categories: General waste, Infectious waste, Pathological waste, Radioactive waste, Chemical waste, Pharmaceutical waste, Sharps and Pressurized waste. Alfonso, Cavite — Health Care Without Harm (HCWH)-Asia together with the UNDP Global Environment Facility Project on Global Healthcare Waste launched the report From the Backyard to the Frontline: Initiatives of Philippine Hospital Workers on Best Environmental Practices at a meeting of 150 hospital administrators and staff in Cavite, Philippines. The report showcases exemplary practices in seven selected hospitals. reference: 01 August 2013. HCWH-Asia Press Release. Contact: Sonia G. Astudillo MEMBERS: Billo, Ellaine Micah S. Ancheta, Gab Cosico, Thea Bismonte, Carlo Definition -Bio-Medical Waste (also popularly called healthcare waste or hospital waste) Anything tested or used on an individual, or any trash from biological experiments are medical waste. Pathological wastes – means waste material consisting of only human remains, an anatomical parts, and/or tissues. Agencies that regulate different aspects of biomedical waste include incineration or decontamination by heating with steam under pressure in an autoclave. Trash chutes must not be used for the transfer or disposal of biomedical waste. What is Biomedical Waste Management? In the late 1980's - Items such as used syringes washed up on several East Coast beaches USA - HIV and HPV virus infection - Lead to development of Biomedical Waste Management Law in USA.

Treated waste sent to authorized recyclers. Plastic waste should not be sent to landfill sites. Collected in White(Translucent) puncture proof, leak proof and tamper proof containers Autoclaving followed by shredding in metal or concrete container. Final disposal to iron foundries or sanitary landfill or designated concrete waste sharp pit. Waste sharps including metals Adequate for Infectious waste (including sharps) and pathological waste Efficient treatment; elimination of all pathogens. Pharmaceutical and chemical residues Incinerator capacity: Available capacities 200kg/day-10 tonnes/day.(Generally, 1 tonne/day used) BIOMEDICAL WASTE Among the various hazardous waste the important ones are formaldehyde, solvents (Xylene,Acetone, Ethanol, Methanol), mercury from broken thermometers and radioactive isotopes The various unused or discarded solvents can be stored in gallon drums and then incinerated Radioactive wastes are usually generated from nuclear medicine department and clinical laboratories.These materials can be retained on the site until they have been decayed to non hazardous level or they can be transported off site for land disposal.Waste is disposed of using the process of vitrification which encases the high radiation liquid in glass so that the liquid does not leach out during burial. Broken or discared and contaminated glass are collected in blue cardboard boxes with blue coloured marking Disinfection followed by recycling Disposal Procedures for Chemically Hazardous Liquid Waste AS PER WHO STANDARDS CLASSIFICATION OF WASTES Human tissues, Organs , Body Parts Pharmaceutical liquid waste (discarded/unused/expiry date medicines) Provision for storage Handles waste without adverse effect Pre-treat the waste Training on handling waste annually Immunisation of co-worker Ensure segregation of liquid chemical waste at source Ensure treatment and disposal of liquid waste If they are in small amounts, they can be diluted with water and discharged to the sewers. They can also either be transported off site to a secured land fill or returned to the supplier or small amounts can be incinerated.
