Warnings:
•
Sterilization is not a substitute for cleaning. Instruments
must be thoroughly cleaned prior to sterilization.
•
The following autoclave processes have been validated,
however, the sterility assurance level for any given
sterilization cycle is dependent on the actual conditions
selected by the user and the correct calibration of the
user's sterilization equipment and instrumentation.
Because these factors are not within the control of
T.A.G. Medical Products Corporation Ltd., the user is
responsible for the sterility assurance level.
1. Prior to surgical use, the instruments should be cleaned
and disinfected as described above.
2. Wrap the cleaned instruments per local procedures.
3. Store in a cool, dry place.
4. Sterilize by steam.
