What is DASRI?

1111 questions from 157 articles available in English.

DASRI (healthcare waste presenting infectious risks) is healthcare waste presenting an infectious or mechanical risk, as defined in Article R.1335-1 of the Public Health Code. It includes sharp equipment, waste soiled with blood or a biological fluid, expired blood products, human anatomical waste and waste with a proven infectious risk. Waste produced during care is not automatically DASRI: unsoiled packaging or clean gloves count as DAOM. DASRI follows a specialised route, under the responsibility of the institution producing it.
