Item Viabilidad del reúso de dispositivos médicos empleados en cirugía oftalmológica en institución de nivel IV en Cali(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2019) Gallego Figueroa, Leonardo Andrés; Candelo Osorio, Paola Andrea; Vargas Vásquez, John EdwarThe reuse of single-use medical devices (DMUU) in Colombia does not have specific legislation. Resolution 2183 of 2004, by which good sterilization practices are adopted for health service providers and regarding reuse, which is an increasingly common practice at national level, allow this technique as long as health institutions bear with scientific evidence that the safety and integrity of the patient is not exposed. The study was carried out on four DMUU types reused in a health institution in the city of Cali, among them we have: cannula of charles with silicone tip 23 GA, vacuum receiving trephine - vacuum donor trephine, set of lancets / trocar X 3, straight endolaser fiber. In order to identify the viability of the DMUU reuse and collect scientific evidence, laboratory tests of microbiological analysis, structural analysis were developed. Which allowed to evaluate the reuse process, indicating the pre sence or absence of microorganisms, trauma, wear, among others. As a result of this study it was obtained that the cannula of charles can be reused a maximum of three reuses and the cleaning and sterilization protocol must be reassessed, the vacuum receiving trephin e in conjunction with the vacuum donor trepan can be reused a maximum of a reuse, the set of lancets / trocar X 3 can be used up to a third reuse in the surgical process and for the straight endolaser fiber can be reused until a fifth reuse cycle with the pos sibility of reuse in an additional cycle. Additionally, a cost analysis study was carried out for all the medical devices studied, which allowed identifying the practice of reuse for the institution
