Sterilization for the US market
■
Aesculap advises against sterilizing the device by flash sterilization or chemical sterilization.
■
Sterilization may be accomplished by a standard prevacuum cycle in a steam autoclave.
To achieve a sterility assurance level of 10 -6 , Aesculap recommends the following parameters:
Aesculap Orga Tray/Sterile container (perforated bottom)
Minimum cycle parameters*
Sterilization method Temp.
Prevacuum 270 °F/275 °F
*Aesculap has validated the above sterilization cycle and has the data on file. The validation was accomplished in an
Aesculap sterile container cleared by FDA for the sterilization and storage of these products. Other sterilization cycles
may also be suitable, however individuals or hospitals not using the recommended method are advised to validate
any alternative method using appropriate laboratory techniques. Use an FDA cleared accessory to maintain sterility
after processing, such as a wrap, pouch, etc.
WARNING for the US market
If this device is/was used in a patient with, or suspected of having Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD), the device
cannot be reused and must be destroyed due to the inability to reprocess or sterilize to eliminate the risk of
crosscontamination.
