AB  - Much  modern  medical  equipment  is  labeled  "disposable."  When  resources  are  scarce,  this  luxury  cannot  be  sustained.  On  the  other  hand,  safety  regarding  reuse  of  equipment  is  paramount.  Patients  should  not  be  put  at  risk  either  through  introducing  infections  from  previously  used  equipment  or  by  using  malfunctioning  equipment.  This  section  discusses  the  reuse,  cleaning,  and  sterilization  of  equipment,  including  guidelines  and  techniques.
