In 2016 the MIKROS Dental Center was  one of a few dental clinics in the whole city Chernivtsi, that was using the full optimized MELAG system solution for cleaning and sterilizing dental instruments. It became an important factor for building confidence to the center, and as a result, today the practice receives a high number of patients every day which gives the MIKROS Dental Center an even higher responsibility to their patients in maintaining the hygiene standards.

With a broad-based team of dentists the practice offers almost all dental treatments such as prophylaxis, orthodontics, dental therapy, prosthetic dentistry, periodontology and many more. Espiacially with such a variation of treatments a fast, precise and reliable decontamination process is required.

Reliable working routines by using the MELAG System Solution

Health is our most precious asset. That is why we focus on proper instrument decontamination. When designing our decontamination room we wanted to use latest technology for the best-possible efficiency and safety. We chose the MELAG System Solution in order to implement a fully aligned and integrated reprocessing workflow from one manufacturer. With MELAtherm 10 Evolution, MELAseal Pro and Vacuklav 44 B+ Evolution, we reliably cover all process steps.

Especially, the MELAG washer-disinfector plays a vital role in workflow optimization. The automated cleaning and disinfection of instruments not only saves considerable time and money, but also reduces the risk of puncture wounds compared to manual procedures. With an active drying, space-saving process agent intake and integrated documentation interfaces, MELAtherm 10 Evolution meets all of our requirements and ensures highest hygiene standards. Questions about correct working procedures are easily answered by the video tutorials on the large colour-touch display.

We really like the universal use of our steam sterilizer Vacuklav 44 B+ Evolution. High speed cycle times and large capacities for all loading patterns, even with our containers, make the autoclave an ideal solution for the sterilization of large quantities of surgical instruments.

With the MELAG System Solution we support patient care

Infection control is more important than ever. Even in times of COVID-19 our patients can rely on our hygiene measures. For the safety of our patients and team, we deploy the MELAG System Solution. The aligned operating concept gives our team confidence in instrument decontamination. We are very pleased to have MELAG as our hygiene partner by our side.

Unident Union Dental Spa is a clinic in Wroclaw that specializes in implantology, orthodontics and aesthetic medicine. The clinic offers the entire spectrum of dental treatment for their patients. The modern interior design, which creates a unique ambience, has been awarded with a design prize. The team at Unident Union Dental Spa does not only attach great importance to a modern facility - the decontamination room is also equipped with the latest MELAG System Solution for time-saving workflows.

Safe and efficient processes for infection control

Investing in quality and innovation was our top-priority right from the start. We chose the MELAG System because we wanted smooth operation without interruptions in our decontamination room. Thanks to the aligned MELAG System Solution, sterilized instruments are available again in the shortest possible time. 

We particularly appreciate our MELAtherm. After automated reprocessing in the washer-disinfector, the instruments can be safely cleaned, disinfected and removed dry. This offers us great comfort and saves a lot of time. The instruments are sealed before sterilization, also time-optimzed, by using the MELAseal Pro rotary sealing device. We also attached importance to short cycle times when choosing the autoclave. Vacuklav 44 B+ Evolution enables us to sterilize large quantities of instruments in a very short time due to the patented double-jacket technology and intelligent drying DRYtelligence. The colour touch display of the autoclave makes for an intuitive operation as well as a traceable documentation and approval of the sterilization batch.

Time for treatment of our patients

In order to offer our patients the entire spectrum of dentistry with detailed advice and treatment, we must be able to rely on time-saving workflows. With the perfectly coordinated devices of the MELAG System Solution, our instruments can be reprocessed in the shortest possible time and the entire hygiene cycle runs safely and reliably. We save a lot of time and our patients and the entire team are perfectly protected against infections by means of dangerous pathogens.

Working time is lifetime - a strong partnership and a highly engaged team enable the dentists Antonia Ebel-Wemmer and Stefanie Bleul to put together their own ideas into practice: creating a pleasant atmosphere with impressive interiour design elements and the use of high quality technology. Safety, ease and comfort are important factors for the patient treatment - especially in the treatment of children and anxiety patients.

Protection against infection and meticulous hygiene workflows are just as important in podiatric practices as it is in medical or dental facilities. In order to protect patients even better from infection with pathogens, Podiatrist Vera Wille has decided to use the MELAG System Solution including automatic cleaning and disinfection.

More patient safety in Podiatry practices - Vera Wille shows how easy it can be by using the MELAG System Solution for the entire hygiene process.
The foot specialist has been running her practice near Neubrandenburg for several years. Vera Wille earlier used to clean and disinfect the instruments for her treatments manually. "I love my MELAtherm. For years, I had been treating my instruments manually with ultrasonic baths and a disinfection tub for decontamination. It was a complete waste of time and instrument reprocessing with a washer-disinfector is much safer".

The Podiatrist is still very happy with her step into self-employment, although a family that "goes along with it" is needed, because 10 to 12 hour workdays are quite normal. But Vera Wille appreciates the freedom to run her business as she sees fit and she is always happy to watch patients leave her practice satisfied after treatment. Vera Wille also takes a clear approach to the hygiene workflow. Using the MELAG System means: only one contact person for all steps of instrument preparation, traceable processes, time savings and more safety for her patients.

My system solution is ideally suited to instrument decontamination in Podiatry.
In my Podiatry practice I treat an average of about 10 to 15 patients a day, using specific instruments. Together with MELAG consultants, I was able to clarify in advance whether MELAtherm 10 is suitable for my practice. The MELAtherm basket and accessory system is freely configurable so that everything has been optimally adapted to the individual needs. It could only get even better with one or two accessories that would have been specially developed for Podiatrists.

Before it comes to sterilization with the MELAG autoclave, I wrap individual instruments with my MELAseal 200 sealing device. It is very useful to decontaminate instrument sets with MELAstore arranged appropriately for the respective treatment. This method of working protects against stabbing injuries, because the instruments are firmly arranged in washing trays. With the MELAG system solution, I prepare the instruments legally compliant according to international standards. The fast program run times of the washer-disinfector and the autoclave ensure that my instruments are re-usable within the shortest possible time. Efficiency, easy handling and reliability of the reprocessing workflows are extremely important in daily practice.

Tailore made safe instrument reprocessing
Every day I am happy to offer my foot-patients the utmost care and, in addition, the best prevention of infection with pathogens. The MELAG System Solution individually tailored to my practice requirements, guarantees traceable processes and the highest level of patient safety.

The dermatological specialist practice was founded in 1984 by my mother Dr. Maria Wereta-Kubek. Since 2005 we have been running both practice locations as a team.
The practice headquarters is located in the city centre of Hofgeismar. There we also have our central decontamination room. The second location is in Bad Karlshafen-Helmarshausen. Besides the treatment of acute and chronic skin diseases, we also offer laser therapies, allergological diagnostics and outpatient surgery.
A high standard of hygiene is absolutely important and self-evident for us.

Our standards are high.
In order to meet our high standards, we have decided to use the integrated MELAG System Solution. After we had previously used disposable instruments, we switched to a concept with our own decontamination room and the MELAG System for cost and quality reasons. For cleaning and disinfection, we use MELAtherm 10. The instruments are packed in MELAstore or sealed with MELAseal 100+ before the sterilization in the steam sterilizer Euroklav. Despite the high patient volume - about 70 patients per day, our team was able after a very short time to integrate the new instrument decontamination process easily into the practice workflows.

Especially the fast cycle times play an important role in ensuring efficient workflows. Our washer-disinfector MELAtherm 10 has an active drying and a space-saving drawer for the process agents. The cleaning results are very good: even with a dry storage of the instruments of up to 5 hours, the MELAtherm completely fulfills our demands on the cleaning result. The system concept is also reflected in the documentation of the entire reprocessing. The washer-disinfector and the autoclave have a uniform documentation interface. Via CF-card we can comfortably read out our reprocessing protocols and keep them available if required.

A good team at our side.
The instrument decontamination process with MELAtherm and Euroklav ensures satisfaction for the whole team. Everything was excellently planned and implemented by our specialist dealer KS Medizintechnik. Service work can be covered for all instruments in the decontamination room by a technician of KS Medizintechnik. We were also able to contact MELAG and KS Medizintechnik with our questions at any time during the subsequent support. We are convinced that the investment in the MELAG System has paid off for our practice.

Sandnes Emergency Center is a modern hospital that provides acute care and emergency preparedness – treatment of all types of sudden illness and injuries. The team of the emergency center ensures that patients receive immediate 24 hour medical help. To guarantee the highest hygiene standards Sandnes Emergency Center relies on the large steam sterilizer Cliniclave 45 for sterilizing all of their instruments.

How we sterilize fast, precisely and reliable
Treating 200 patients a day at peak times requires a safe and efficient instrument reprocessing, including perfect sterilization workflows. Therefore, we need products that we can rely on. Several colleagues recommended the Cliniclave 45 to us. Since the installation of the steam sterilizer, we can sterilize more instruments in one cycle and run significantly less cycles per day. The easy-to-use touch screen with the Norwegian language menu let us facilely operate the large MELAG autoclave, which is also a benefit when it comes to training new staff members. For us, it was important that our instruments are sterilized in accordance with regulations and all legally-binding standards and directives. The Cliniclave 45 enables us to sterilize our instruments in a completely safe manner.

Convinced by state-of-the-art technology and reliability
The concept of the Cliniclave 45 series convinced us with its fast operating times and smart features. Integrated functions such as energy-saving mode, and complete shutdown enable us to sterilize all instruments required in the clinic in one steam sterilizer. Easy documentation and batch approval via the display is a plus. For us it is important to fulfill future requirements already now. It is not a strict requirement yet, but we believe it makes sense to have a complete documentation of the process to ensure the best possible patient safety. Cliniclave 45 sterilizes our instruments even faster and provides excellent drying results. This saves us time and money every day. The ease of use and reliable sterilization ensures the health and safety of our patients and staff.
