The disposal of chemical-pharmacological waste in hospitalization units / O descarte de resíduos químico-farmacológicos em unidades de internação

“…Hazardous medications that end up being discarded together with infectious MW undergo processing by heating, which can cause the release of toxic gases and vapors. 10 Many materials present in hospital routines might contain remnants of drugs, such as syringes, needles, infusion devices, vials, and catheters. A study performed by Silva et al correlates the residual volume of medicines with the extension of gears after the administration of medications and shows that it is 12.0 mL per gear on average.…”
