Midmark announces new continuing education course

February 13, 2024- Midmark Corp. announced its new continuing medical education course, “Enhancing Patient Safety: The Vital Role of Manufacturer’s Instructions for Use (IFUs) in Instrument Processing.” In an effort to help take the mystery out of IFUs and ensure they are front and center in instrument processing, the Midmark clinical education team has partnered with Pfiedler Education, a division of the Association of periOperative Registered Nurses (AORN), to offer training with continuing education units (CEUs). The on-demand, digital module course covers:

  • Steps of the instrument cleaning process.

  • Characteristics of the various types of detergents and high-level disinfectants.
  • Troubleshooting steps for the cleaning process and mechanical equipment.
  • Applicable regulations and standards related to instrument care and cleaning.

This accredited continuing education course is intended for a registered nurse, central services professional, sterile processing technician, surgical technologist or other healthcare professional who wants to learn more or gain knowledge and skills in following IFUs for instrument processing. Designed for professionals with demanding schedules, the course is a self-paced, independent learning activity. After completion of the course, healthcare professionals should be able to: Outline the ways in which properly following IFUs throughout the instrument processing journey may prevent/reduce infections, describe how proficiently reading, interpreting and applying IFUs in the clinical setting (thereby optimizing workflow design) can reduce pathogen transmission between staff and patients, and explain how to optimize workflow and integrate infection control principles.
