In terms of strategies related to medical waste management, in order to better assist individual countries in selecting appropriate medical waste management methods, WHO has proposed strategies for medical waste management in the immediate, medium and long term.
Encourage the reuse of plastic medical injectables
Select polyvinyl chloride (PVC)-free medical devices
Promote the development and application of reuse methods (e.g. plastic, glass products, etc.)
Research and promote the upgrading of new technologies and the adoption of alternative technologies for small-scale incinerators
Countries with economies in transition and developing countries to adopt safe management and disposal models for medical waste management
Incineration is an acceptable disposal technology, but it is necessary to grasp the key issues in the application of incinerators, which include effective waste minimization and segregation, incinerators to be located away from densely populated areas, satisfactory engineering design, reasonable spatial layout, appropriate operation and management, regular maintenance and staff training.
Further reduce the number of unnecessary syringes and reduce the amount of medical waste disposed of
To study the impact of PCDD/FS exposure on human health
Conduct medical waste incineration and carry out risk assessment of medical waste disposal in due course
Promote the application of non-incineration treatment technologies for medical waste disposal to reduce health risks due to unsafe disposal of medical waste and exposure to PCDD/FSv
Support countries to develop effective medical waste management guidelines.
Support countries to develop and implement national plans, policies and regulatory frameworks.
Promote the application of the principles of medical waste management set forth by the Basel Convention.
Support the allocation of human and financial resources between countries to promote healthcare waste management.
