Sterilizing Components and Maintaining the Handpieces
Recommended Sterilization Procedures
The handpieces and non-sterile tips and flues must be sterilized before initial
use. Handpieces and reusable components are cleaned and sterilized after
surgery for next use. Before sterilization, disassemble the handpiece and
accessories as described on page 75. Handpieces, reusable tips, and
accessories should be cleaned after surgery before sterilization. Note that
sterilization systems in use at hospitals are chamber specific. As a result,
Integra LifeSciences can only recommend a reference for hospitals to aid the
sterilization parameters set for your hospital system. Integra LifeSciences
has validated the following sterilization cycles for your consideration.
Steam Sterilization
Place the disassembled handpiece and applicable accessories (reusable tip,
reusable shroud, non-sterile flue and extender) into a sterilization tray.
Double-wrap the sterilization tray in suitable sterilization grade paper and
place fresh filters in the filter ports situated in the top and base of the
sterilization tray. Filters must be replaced after each sterilization cycle.
Integra LifeSciences also recommends using tamper resistant locks in
conjunction with the filters for the unwrapped containers. Place these locks
on the handle of the sterilization tray to ensure that the sterility has not been
broken.
