What is RMW? Regulated medical waste (RMW), also known as âbiohazardousâ waste or 'infectious medicalâ waste, is the portion of the waste stream that may be contaminated by blood, body fluids or other potentially infectious materials, thus posing a significant risk of transmitting infection.
Contaminated disposable sharps (such as used needles) comprise the majority of regulated medical waste in dental practices. 2 Proper storage and labeling of regulated medical waste is one of the many provisions of the Bloodborne Pathogens Rule.
