Abstract
BACKGROUND: Disinfection is an important aspect of ensuring epidemiological safety in medical organizations, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic.
AIM: To analyze the disinfectant use in state medical organizations of the Republic of Tatarstan from 2019 to 2022, considering changes in the epidemiological situation related to COVID-19, and provide recommendations based on the analysis.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Electronic auction data from zakupki.gov.ru were used to analyze disinfectant purchases by state medical organizations in the Republic of Tatarstan from 2019 to 2022. Data analysis involved the application of descriptive statistical methods.
RESULTS: A total of 118 electronic auctions were analyzed. A relationship between the nature of the epidemiological situation and the selection of disinfectants for purchase based on their chemical composition and intended use was identified. Before the pandemic, medical organizations preferred quaternary ammonium compound disinfectants and antibacterial soaps for hand hygiene. During the COVID-19 pandemic, their use of chlorine-based disinfectants, hydrogen peroxide, and alcohol-based hand sanitizers containing 60–69% ethanol increased. As the epidemiological situation stabilized, a discernible shift in preferences toward compound disinfectants was noted. Antiseptics with an alcohol content >70% are increasingly sought after.
CONCLUSIONS: Medical organizations in the Republic of Tatarstan promptly respond to changes in the epidemiological situation by implementing necessary modifications to antiepidemic measures. When developing procurement strategies, not only the requirements of sanitary legislation but also the latest scientific findings in the field of disinfectology must be considered.
