These reprocessing instructions are provided in accordance with ISO 17664, AAMI TIR 12, AAMI ST81. While they have been validated by Stryker as being capable of preparing the device for re-use, it remains the responsibility of the processor to ensure that the reprocessing as actually performed, using equipment, materials, and personnel in the reprocessing facility, achieves the desired result. This normally requires validation and routine monitoring of the process. Stryker recommends users observe these standards when reprocessing medical devices. 2
Intended Use of Sterilization Cases Sterilization cases are plastic and/or metal containers used to hold and protect surgical devices during the sterilization process. They consist of an interlocking case and lid, which are both perforated to allow the passage of sterilizing agent from outside the case to the devices placed inside. Sterilization cases typically feature a silicon finger mat or group of device holders that secure devices during the sterilization process. Some models feature stacking internal cases to allow the segregation of devices.
Warnings • These instructions are validated only for sterilization of the case and device(s) identified herein. Using combinations or parameters not described in this manual may result in incomplete sterilization. • These instructions do not replace the cleaning instructions provided with individual devices. Prior to sterilization, clean all devices as specified in their respective user manuals. • Wear appropriate protective equipment (gloves, eye protection, etc.) when reprocessing any medical device. • Both the devices and the case must be cleaned prior to sterilization, or incomplete sterilization will result. • The sterilization case, its lid, and any internal components have been designed and validated for use as a single system. Do not separate components from the system, for use individually or in combination, or incomplete sterilization may result. • Inspect the case and its components for visible damage, such as cracking or chipping, prior to use. Do not use the case if it is damaged.
3
Cautions • Before lifting the case assembly, verify that the latches connecting the lid to the case are secure. • The case is not designed for use as a shipping container. To avoid damage, remove all devices and pack them separately.
Limitations on Reprocessing
• Proper processing has a minimal effect on this case. End of life is normally determined by wear and damage due to use. • Do not cross-sterilize the case. Using multiple sterilization methods may significantly reduce the performance of the case. • Do not leave the case in solutions longer than necessary. This may accelerate normal product aging. • Damage incurred by improper processing will not be covered by the warranty.
Instructions
Instructions apply to the sterilization case only. For instructions on how to reprocess the devices, consult their respective instructions for use.
4
Point of Use
• Wipe excess soil from the case using disposable paper towels. • If an automated cleaning method will be used, rinse the case in sterile distilled water immediately after use.
Containment and Transportation
• Reprocess the device/case within 30 minutes following use.
Preparation for Manual Cleaning
1
2 3 4
Disassemble the case into its individual components: the base, lid, and (if applicable) silicon mat. Prepare an enzymatic detergent1 according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. Wipe the entire case with a clean cloth dipped in the detergent. Immerse the case in the detergent. Soak the case in the detergent for at least 15 minutes.

Cleaning was validated using Enzol® at 1 oz/gal. at 35-40°C.

Manual Cleaning
1
Brush • Thoroughly brush the exterior of the case with a soft-bristled brush, focusing on any mated or rough surfaces. • Using a pipe cleaner and syringe, brush and flush the hard-to-reach areas of the case. • Actuate the case, brushing any movable parts in their extreme open and closed positions.
2
Rinse • Rinse the case with reverse osmosis/deionized (RO/DI) water at ambient temperature to remove all detergent residues. After all detergent residues have been removed, continue to rinse for a minimum of 30 seconds. • Drain excess water from the case and dry it using a clean cloth and pressurized air (40 psi). • Visually inspect the case for cleanliness, paying close attention to hard-to-reach areas. If visible soil remains, repeat steps 1 and 2.
3
Soak • Prepare a non-enzymatic detergent2 according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. • Fully immerse the case and inject any mated surfaces with at least 50mL of the detergent. • Soak the case for a minimum of 15 minutes.

Cleaning was validated using Renu-Klenz™ at ¼ oz/gal. at 35-40°C.

Brush • Thoroughly brush the exterior of the case using a soft-bristled brush. • Inject the prepared detergent into any mated surfaces a minimum of five times. • Actuate the case, brushing any movable parts in their extreme open and closed positions. • Using a pipe cleaner and syringe, brush and flush the hard-to-reach areas of the case.
5
Rinse • Thoroughly rinse the case with ambient RO/ DI water until all detergent residue is removed. Flush any crevices five times with a syringe. After the detergent residue is removed, continue rinsing for a minimum of 30 seconds. • Drain the excess water from the case and dry it with a clean cloth and pressurized air (40 psi). • Visually inspect the case for cleanliness, paying close attention to hard-to-reach areas.
1
Rinse • Disassemble the case into its individual components: the base, lid, and (if applicable) silicon mat. • Rinse the case with RO/DI water at ambient temperature until there is no visible soil. Use a syringe to assist in rinsing. After all visible soil has been removed, continue to rinse for a minimum of 30 seconds. • Place the case in the washer on an incline to facilitate drainage.

Maintenance
Drying • Remove the case from the washer after the completion of the dry phase. • Dry the case using a clean soft cloth. Use filtered pressurized air (40 psi) to assist in drying. • Visually inspect the case for cleanliness, paying close attention to hard-to-reach areas. • No routine maintenance is required for the sterilization case.

Inspection and Testing
• Inspect the case for dents and cracks. If a problem is observed or suspected, the case should be returned for repair. • Inspect all components for cleanliness. If fluid or tissue buildup is present, repeat the above cleaning and disinfection procedures.
Packaging for Sterilization
Double-wrap the case unless otherwise noted below.
Sterilization
Warning: Disassemble all instruments (e.g. cannula and scope bridge) prior to sterilization; otherwise, non-sterile products may result. Warning: Place the stopcock of the devices (where applicable) in the open position prior to sterilization; otherwise, non-sterile products may result. Warning: Turn the thumbscrew on the camelback handle counterclockwise until the stop is reached prior to sterilization; otherwise, non-sterile products may result. • Prepare the device(s) and the sterilization case as indicated in the “Sterilization Case Setup” section below. • Sterilize the device(s) inside the case according to the parameters indicated below (Ethylene Oxide and Autoclave (Steam) only).

Warning: Drying time depends on several variables, including: altitude, humidity, type of wrap, preconditioning, size of chamber, mass of load, material of load, and placement in chamber. Users must verify that drying time set in their autoclave yields dry surgical equipment. Warning: These instructions were developed using the guidance from AAMI TIR 12, ISO 17665 and AAMI ST79 and Stryker recommends users observe these standards.
