New Opioid Policy
If you have ever had a spore test fail and continue to use the failed autoclave, you have options. One such option is running a sterilization cycle with a ProChem SSW Integrator.
ProChem SSW Steam Sterilization Integrator is a single-use Class 5 Integrating Indicator which complies with ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11140-1:2005 and ANSI/AAMI ST60:1996. It integrates three essential criteria for proper steam sterilization: time, temperature, and steam. When processed along with a load it indicates, with a margin of safety, whether the proper steam sterilization criteria have been achieved.
If you received notice of a failed spore test and are still using the autoclave:
- Place 1 ProChem SSW Integrator in each sterilization cycle.
- After the sterilization cycle is complete, verify the ink has reached the ACCEPT window.
- If the dark bar does not reach the ACCEPT window, reprocessing is required.
To check your autoclave daily between regular weekly spore tests:
- Place 1 ProChem SSW Integrator in the first sterilization cycle of the day.
- After the sterilization cycle is complete, verify the link has reached the ACCEPT window.
- If the dark bar does not reach the ACCEPT window, reprocessing is required.
