Surgical Supplies for Hospitals

Surgical supplies are extremely important for hospitals and clinics. Professional medical surgical supplies are necessary for almost every kind of surgical procedure. Almost 70% of all the world's surgical supplies are manufactured in the city of Sialkot, Pakistan. The large manufacturers of Sialkot have very strict standards of quality and infection control. This is important because poor quality surgical implements have been identified as a likely cause of MRSA infections. Shards of steel can cause microscopic holes in surgical gloves, which spreads infection. Badly made instruments that have unwanted grooves or trenches can trap body tissue and fluids and become another possible source of infection.
