Guest guest Posted October 9, 1998 Report Share Posted October 9, 1998 Gastric tubes that are not able to be sterilized are disposable. Also there is no known case of transmission from exposure to instruments that are sterilized using conventional methods except for brain surgery. Even then, considering the number of patients having had brain biopsies over the years, the risk or infectivity of crainiotomy instruments must be rendered non infectious by the methods used.
