3. Why Proper Disposal of Medial Sharps is Necessary? According to the definition, all the wastes which include needles and objects that can cut or puncture the skin are categorized as waste sharps. These materials can carry the discarded blood that can transmit the disease from a patient to the others. It’s not only harmful to humans but can be a threat to animals also. Avoiding disease transmission thru these wastes needs its proper disposal. Not just this, there are several reasons why medical sharps disposal is necessary.

4. To Stop Diseases Transmission Medical sharps contain syringes, scalpels, and broken glasses that can carry discarded blood. When someone uses a needle, viruses in their blood such as hepatitis or HIV may contaminate it. This contaminated needle can transmit these viruses to a healthy person or animal by piercing their skin and can make them sick. To stop this type of disease transmission medical sharps should be disposed of properly. To Ease the Regular Waste Handling Regular trash handlers carry this waste on daily basis, which means there is a circulation of regular trash handling. If medical sharps are not properly handled they can get mixed in the regular trash. Once the medical sharps are mixed in it, regular trash handling might become tricky. The regular trash handlers can get injured from the sharps present in the waste. That makes the structured trash handling process arduous. To ease its handling it is necessary to gather the medical sharps separately. To avoid any complexities in waste handling, do not allow them to get mixed with the regular trash. This is how you can ease the regular trash handling by proper disposal of the waste sharps.

5. What processes can be used for Medical Sharps Disposal? Even though there are several ways to dispose of medical waste but the most effective and modern one is onsite waste management technology. It is capable to dispose of the waste on the site where it is generating. As sharps can dispose of in the site where they are generated, there is no need to concern about the handling. Onsite waste management technology-based devices like TE-5000 can do this task efficiently. TE-5000 is a desktop-sized device that not only handles the sharps on the site but also sterilizes it so the sharps become safe. Almost all other methods need the transfer of the waste to a specific location, which has always been a matter of concern as the waste can crumble during the transfer from one place to another one. The Conclusion Though all the waste sharps are dangerous, medical sharps are hazardous for health and can transmit diseases. Thus, medical sharps disposal is essential and should also be handled properly. Onsite waste management technology is the best option for it.
