CMR versius - Sterilisation Process

Sterilisation
Warnings
Check that items placed in the
sterilisation tray are not touching or
shadowing each other as this could
result in ineective sterilisation.
Ensure that electrosurgery
instrument cables have been
thoroughly dried before sterilisation
as any moisture remaining could
result in ineective sterilisation.
Always place packaged cables into a
sterilisation tray before placing the
tray into the steam steriliser to avoid
damage.
Only use validated parameter

have not been validated could
result in damage to, or ineective
sterilisation of, Versius Electrosurgery

The sterilisation process should
conform with ISO 17665-1.
Allow electrosurgery instrument
cables to cool down gradually to
room temperature before handling.
Sudden changes in temperature
could damage electrosurgery
instrument cables.
