Hospital waste management practice in the Czech Republic
- Institute of Hygiene, 1st Medical Faculty, Charles University, Prague, Czech Republic
Hospital wastes pose a serious problem. This is primarily caused by the diversity of the individual components of the waste which constitute a risk to health if inadequately handled. It is evident that economic and technical conditions for both a safe disposal as well as efficient steam sterilization and management practice based on legal regulations consequently will contribute to protections of both human health and the environment.
