Hi All

What is the opinion of the forum regarding Steri Hood? Do you think it will do the job of complying with the regulations? It seems to be me that its too good to be true!

Tony Kilcoyne a recent customer of Steri Hood replied

Hi Xenis,

I personally think it is very good, well thought out and actually a very practical solution for the majority of smaller dental practices.

As you know it’s an area I have a particular interest in and when someone like myself wants to actually DO best practice, it’s the only set-up that allows me to seamlessly integrate products that actually deactivate Prions and as a practice that does Surgery and Implant work too, even though the prion-risks are minute and theoretical etc, current HTM01-05 so-called best practice would be a step backwards for a Practice like mine that places Implants IMHO, because most Implant surgical instruments and burs are re-used and any risks of baking proteins and bone onto these isn’t good and isn’t clever.

Although they are a local company to me, I have no financial interest in them but as they produce everything they are able to follow my particular evidence-based designs/methods to the letter, which they have been very receptive to!

I was hoping HTM01-05 would have become more evidence-based by now, especially for surgical/invasive procedures, but as it hasn’t then alternative/more credible solutions may have to come from elsewhere, I suppose.

Yours progressively,

Tony.

I am told all you need to get Your Steri Hood equipment  passed by is the PCT not the AE(D) from the Institute of Healthcare Engineers and Estate Management. You may be closer that you think to your pass your HTM01-05 sterilization unit provided by our  Steri Hood.

Our research has shown that contrary to widely held opinion amongst dentists that you will require separate decontamination facilities in your dental surgery away from the surgery practice rooms, is not now required.

Having spoken with our regional HTM01-05 expert to get clarification on the whole process of compliance with the law in 2010 we can now announce this important change to HTM01-05 compliance rules.

You can have your decontamination unit in the same room as you treat your patients. All you need is a separate sterilization area. Our Steri Hood offers you a sterilization hood, laboratory furniture, or the mobile or static Steri Hood sterilization unit for that sterilization area. You do not need a separate room , just that separate segregated decontamination area in your surgery practice area.

You can find full details on our Steri Hood products website www.ukhtm01-05.co.uk which are your answer to the new HTM01-05 compliance rules. These product details can can be found at www.ukhtm01-05.co.uk
