Reprocessing and reuse of single-use medical devices

There is a profound lack of awareness of SUD reprocessing and reuse among all relevant stakeholders. In addition, the overwhelming desire for transparency among patients further forces the debate of whether current, covert methods should be altered, in addition to the question of who bears this responsibility. Despite research and history having shown the practice to be safe, apprehension and misconceptions remain. Survey results suggest that education may be able to subdue such patient concerns.
