I. FUMIGATION
1. Seal close all the outlets like doors/windows.
4. PROCEDURE
a. Take three one litre capacity heat resistant vessels. Divide the calculated
quantity of formalin and KMno4 approximately into three equal parts and dispense
formalin into each vessel. Place the vessels at equal distance in the centre of the
operation theatre. Add KMno4 into each vessel now and immediately leave the
room.
1. Clean using vacuum cleaner (using broom increases bacterial counts in air
which is highly undesirable).
2. After 10min of cleaning, Mopping should be done using plain water with 10grams
of bleaching powder per litre.
3. Let the floor dry after the first Mop, Second round of Mopping is done using 2-
5% phenol (carbolic acid 20ml-50ml per litre of water) or a good quality disinfectant
like Lysol can be used as per the manufacturers instructions.
5. Clean the Operation Theatre table, instruments coming in intimate contact with
patient and door handles with 70% Alcohol solution.
7. After mopping, mops must be kept dry by exposure to sunlight. Continuous use
of mops without intermittent drying leads to contamination more than disinfection.
