MerryAnesthesiology 2016; 124:785-94ABSTRACTBackground: The aseptic techniques of anesthesiologists in the preparation and administration of injected medications have not been extensively investigated, but emerging data demonstrate that inadvertent lapses in aseptic technique may be an important contributor to surgical site and other postoperative infections.Methods: A prospective, open, microbiological audit of 303 cases in which anesthesiologists were asked to inject all bolus drugs, except propofol and antibiotics, through a 0.2-m filter was performed. The authors cultured microorganisms, if present, from the 0.2-m filter unit and from the residual contents of the syringes used for drawing up or administering drugs. Participating anesthesiologists rated ease of use of the filters after each case.Results: Twenty-three anesthesiologists each anesthetized up to 25 adult patients. The authors isolated microorganisms from filter units in 19 (6.3%) of 300 cases (3 cases were excluded), including Staphylococcus capitis, Staphylococcus warneri, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus haemolyticus, Micrococcus luteus/lylae, Corynebacterium, and Bacillus species. The authors collected used syringes at the end of each case and grew microorganisms from residual drug in 55 of these 2,318 (2.4%) syringes including all the aforementioned microorganisms and also Kocuria kristinae, Staphylococcus aureus, and Staphylococcus hominus. Participants average rating of ease of use of the filter units was 3.5 out of 10 (0 being very easy and 10 being very difficult).Conclusions: Microorganisms with the potential to cause infection are being injected (presumably inadvertently) into some patients during the administration of intravenous drugs by bolus during anesthesia. The relevance of this finding to postoperative infections warrants further investigation.

Nos dias 17 e 18 de setembro, acontecera, no auditorio NereuRamos, anexo II, na Camara dos Deputados, o Seminario Bioma Cerrado Normas deConservacao e uso sustentavel. O evento sera realizado pela Comissao de Meio Ambiente e DesenvolvimentoSustentavel, Frente Parlamentar Ambientalista e Ecodata, de 9 as 17 horas.O seminario discutira normas de conservacao e uso sustentavel doCerrado, e os limites para a exploracao do bioma. O Cerrado, segundo maiorbioma da America do Sul, e segundo maior bioma brasileiro, ocupa um quarto doterritorio nacional, e a savana mais biodiversa do planeta e berco das aguasdas principais bacias hidrograficas brasileiras. Estarao presentes no evento representantes dos 15municipios goianos e das associacoes de produtores rurais que fizeram parte domodulo V da Rota da Sociobiodiversidade do Cerrado, projetosdesenvolvidos pela Ecodata em parceria com a Sudeco/Ministerio da Integracao com o objetivo de fortalecer a cadeia de produtos docerrado, promover acesso as linhas de credito e ao fomento, e a articulacao dosagroextrativistas para insercao dos produtos no mercado.Alem dos produtores rurais, participarao do eventoparlamentares, representantes dos governos federal, estadual e municipal,representantes de institutos de ensino e pesquisa, empresarios, chefs decozinha, ONGs e estudantes.Programacao e inscricoes: http://www.frenteambientalista.com/inscricoes-de-eventos/evento/seminario-bioma-cerrado-normas-de-conservacao-e-uso-sustentavel/ Evento discutira o usosustentavel e as normas de conservacao do Cerrado com o objetivo de formularpoliticas publicas para delimitar as areas para a exploracao desse bioma e suapreservacao(Brasilia,14 de setembro de 2015) O
