4b
Manual cleaning or assisted
Place the devices in a kit, box or container to
by an ultrasonic device
avoid any contact between instruments.
Immerse in the disinfecting solution with
cleaning properties, assisted by an ultrasonic
device if suitable.
5
Rinsing
Abundant rinsing (at least 1 min)
6
Inspection
Inspect devices and sort out those with
defects.
Assemble the devices (stops)
7
Packaging
Place the devices in a kit, box or container to
avoid any contact between instruments and
pack the devices in "Sterilization pouches".
8
Sterilization
Steam sterilization at : 134 °C / 273°F during
18 min. at 2, 1 bar.
Check the success of the sterilisable cycle
(use physico-chemical indicator for each
performed cycle.)
9
Storage
Keep devices in sterilization packaging in a
dry and clean environment
A1. Instruments
Warning
No visible impurities should be observed on the instru-
ments.
Discard any instruments with large obvious defects
(broken, bent, and twisted).
Follow instructions and observe concentrations and time
given by the manufacturer (see general recommendations
under section 7).
The disinfecting solution should be aldehyde free and wit-
hout di- or triethanolamines as corrosion inhibitor.
Use quality water in accordance with local regulations.
If a disinfecting solution contains a corrosion inhibitor,
it is recommended to rinse the instruments just before
the autoclaving.
Dry on a single use non-woven cloth, or with a drying
machine or filtered compressed air.
Dirty instruments must be cleaned and disinfected again.
Discard instruments which show any deformations (bent,
twisted), damages (broken, corroded) or defects (loss of
color coding or marking) affecting the resistance, the
safety or the performance of the instrument.
Check the validity period of the pouch given by the
manufacturer to determine the shelf life.
Use packaging which are resistant up to a temperature of
141°C (286°F) and in accordance with EN ISO 11607.
The instruments, posts and the plastic supports must be
sterilized according to the packaging labelling.
Use only autoclaves that are matching the requirements
of EN 13060, EN 285.
The sterilization protocol has been validated by Produits
Dentaires SA according to EN ISO 17665.
Use only this recommended sterilization procedure.
Control the efficiency (packaging integrity, no humidity,
color change of sterilization indicators, physico-chemical
integrators, digital records of cycles parameters).
Traceability of procedure records.
Sterility cannot be guaranteed if packaging is open,
damaged or wet.
Check the packaging and the medical devices before
using them (packaging integrity, no humidity and
validity period).
