3. Definition
“as that service, with in the hospital, catering
for the sterile supplies to all departments ,
both to specialized units as well as general
wards and OPDs.”
4. AIM
• Centralizing the activities of

7. PLANNING OF CSSD
The CSSD can broadly be classified into two parts
Central Peripheral
unit unit
-Responsible for receiving dirty - Mainly responsible for distribution
Utilities cleaning, processing, to various areas of hospital.
Sterilization, storage and supply - TSSU (Theater Sterile Supply Unit)

10. LAY OUT DESIGNING PRINCIPLE
There is no back tracking of sterile goods.
One way movement from receiving counter to issue counter.
Sterile area should be prior to sterile storage and issue.
The receiving counter must be away from the issue counter.
Separate receiving and issuing counter
There should minimum six basic division in CSSD
Cleaning Packaging Sterilization Issue
Drying Area Storage
Area Area Area counter
11. STRUCTURAL DESIGNING
The Central Unit comprises of three zones, separated by two distinct
barriers.
One collection window
one supply window on the other end.

18. STERILIZATION .
It is a process of freeing an article from all living
organisms including bacteria ,fungal spores and
viruses.
A material is pronounced sterile if it
achieves 99.99% kill of bacterial spores.

21. QUALITY CONTROL
1.Indicator tapes
• Time, temperature, pressure sensitive tapes.
• Does not indicate for sensitivity for sterilization but only suggest the required
time and pressure the items have been subjected
2.Bacteriological indicator :
• Kept in center of pack before the process and later on subjected to lab for
colony count and growth
• A pack of non- pathogenic bacterial spore (stearo- thermopiles) is placed in
each load to check quality.
• If the level of sterilization is satisfactory, the green/ brown color change to black.
3.Personnel should be adequately trained to handle the equipments.
4.Regular maintenance of equipments be done.
5.The hospital infection control committee monitors the sterilization by drawing
samples and growing in medias for colony count.
22. STORAGE
• After sterilization the sterilized items are kept in different racks as
per labeling.
• Supplied as per the demand of different area.
• To ensure continuous availability of sterile supply five times of
daily requirement should be available in storage.
