When I did my emergency room training for my EMT course, they soaked everything in a mixture of hydrogen peroxide & betadine. One guy had multiple lacerations in his hand from rusted jagged metal. The nurses had him soak in the mixture, then they rinsed his hand with sterile water so the doctor could see to do the stitches.
