Faecal transplantation

[Giulietta Pontivivo]

Could I ask if any hospitals are currently implementing faecal transplantation.
Would you be willing to share your policies and procedures.
I’m particularly interested how you “blend” the faeces and saline mix and how you clean and reprocess the blender/ mixer etc.
Many thanks and I look forward to your replies

Hi Giulietta

When I was at Greenslopes we used small electric kitchen blenders and threw them out after each patient, but we didn’t do that many, so may not be the most cost effective method!

Cheers
