Evaluation of closed container flash sterilization system.

Flash sterilization is a rapid, effective procedure for providing sterile instruments for surgery; however, aseptic transport of an unwrapped sterile tray is a major problem. This study tested the effectiveness of using a closed container for flash sterilization, and found the closed container to be an effective alternative to the traditional open tray for flash sterilization and transportation of sterile supplies.

Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL).

There hundred sixteen patients with symptomatic upper and lower urinary tract calculi underwent extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) at the Ohio Kidney Stone Center during the first three months. Ninety-seven percent of the stones were treated with one ESWL session. Twenty-four percent of the treatments required cystoscopy with ureteral stent placement for manipulation of stones to facilitate ESWL. Complications were minimal, less than three percent.
