“…The fraction of infectious waste with high biological risk requires differential attention, in its management, even considering its low generation, as observed in this study with a generation rate of 0.05 (0.03–0.08) kg·bed −1 ·day −1 . This type of waste is produced in few sectors of a hospital, such as laboratories, emergency room, wards, delivery room, operating room, hemotherapy service, hospitalization, and clinics (Castro et al 2014 ; Maders and Cunha, 2015 ; Oliveira et al 2018 ). Due to its generation in limited places, it is possible to promote better waste segregation, but there are still reports of mixture of infectious waste with general waste (Maders and Cunha, 2015 ; Nazari et al 2020 ).…”

Healthcare waste (HCW) management is a challenge for establishments that generate this type of waste, especially hospitals, as they are one of the largest generators. A determining factor in waste management is the amount of waste generation, which must be used for management planning. This study aims to compile and evaluate information on the management of HCW generated in Belo Horizonte’s (located in Brazil) hospitals declared in their respective Healthcare Waste Management Plans (HCWMP) sent for approval by the municipality’s Superintendency of Urban Cleaning. Therefore, a comparative analysis of the hospitals’ generations in relation to their characteristics (nature, specialty, and size) was carried out, using the Kruskal–Wallis statistical test with post hoc in Nemenyi. For the study hospitals, a generation rate of 7.18 (6.17–8.23) kg·bed −1 ·day −1 was estimated, a generation rate close to that of developed countries. When comparing the generation according to the specialty of the hospitals, it was identified that the maternity hospitals (9.00 (7.05–10.90)) kg·bed −1 ·day −1 had a significantly higher generation rate than the low-complexity hospitals (4.75 (3.28–6.18)) kg·bed −1 ·day −1 . It was also possible to demonstrate that the specialty and size of hospitals influence the structure available for waste storage. Finally, it can be observed that there are few treatment alternatives, with incineration and autoclaving being the technologies most commonly used by hospitals. It is expected that the results presented can serve as a reference for waste managers, in a context where there is little shared information on the subject.

A multiplicidade e complexidade dos potenciais impactos ambientais dos resíduos hospitalares convergem para uma discussão a nível mundial. Nesse sentido, o presente estudo teve por objetivo identificar os impactos ambientais causados pelos resíduos hospitalares, por meio de uma revisão atual da literatura em periódicos científicos, nacionais e internacionais, em quatro bases de dados com as palavras-chave predeterminadas. Vários impactos ambientais puderam ser identificados, os quais podem comprometem a saúde, a segurança e o bem-estar da população, as atividades sociais e econômicas, a biota, as condições estéticas e sanitárias do meio ambiente e a qualidade dos recursos ambientais. Conclui-se que as águas residuárias hospitalares estão atualmente em evidência, sendo amplamente discutidos devido a presença de resíduos químicos, fármacos e de microrganismos patógenos resistentes.

“…Pinheiro & Silva (2016) observed inadequate practices even after the training for the SHW program, making it clear that the occurrence is not only due to lack of information from professionals, but also unidirectional training, focused on compliance with the legislation, which do not present satisfactory results. Oliveira et al (2018) introduce the realization of training campaigns and environmental education that can involve all employees, focusing on specific environmental aspects of each department, to encourage both the team and visitors, to participate in practical and sustainable actions, disseminating the importance of following the correct management of SHW, so that it becomes routine. Thus, when new improvement measures are determined, Kist et al (2017) ensure that a new cycle is repeated frequently to complete the recommended continuous improvement process, where the use of protocols or tools such as the PDCA (Plan, Do, Check, Act), introduces a unique, effective and dynamic aspect, in the structuring of the planning, efficient execution, monitoring of steps aimed at maintaining the quality of services and action so that the whole system does not stagnate remaining only on paper so that finally there is a narrowing of the gap that currently exists between the practice and the management of solid hospital waste.…”

This systematic review describes the scientific production about Solid Health Waste Management (SHWM) in hospitals, seeking publications in the period from 2015 to 2020, to have a synthesis of the importance of SHW management and strategies practiced in hospital facilities, analyzing the perception of health professionals about the management of these wastes. The articles obtained demonstrate that health professionals, although they have some knowledge of the legislation, are constantly living with the inadequacies in the management of SHW, resulting in risks to the health of both employees and the environment, and it is necessary to seek management measures aimed at professional training for correct management..
