Guidelines for Wrapping, Packaging,
and Loading
Proper preparation of trays, pouches, and instruments can minimize or prevent
cycle cancellation and positive BI results due to load-related problems.

Only STERRAD and APTIMAX

Instrument Trays and STERRAD
Accessories are recommended for use in the STERRAD 200 Sterilizer.
STERRAD and APTIMAX
®
Instrument Trays are specially designed to
allow diffusion of hydrogen peroxide and the plasma around all the items in
the load. The trays should only be padded with STERRAD Instrument Tray
Mats or polypropylene sterilization wrap. Do NOT use linen, cellulosic, or
any materials shown in the “Items Not Recommended” list. Follow the
instructions for use included with the STERRAD Instrument Tray Mats to
determine the number of mats that can be used at one time in the chamber.

Improper loading of the sterilizer may result in cycle cancellations and/or
positive biological indicator results.
♦
Configure loads with a combination of metal and nonmetal items, and
wrapped trays and pouches to maximize the efficiency of the cycle.
♦
Do not use foam pads in instrument trays. They may absorb the hydrogen
peroxide.
♦
Do not use any wraps or packaging that are not approved by ASP and listed
in the previous section on “items not recommended.”
