Notes for packets and packages
– Arrange packages side-by-side, suitably spaced and absolutely not piled, to avoid their coming in contact with the walls of the chamber.
– Whenever it is necessary to wrap particular objects, always
use suitably porous material (sterilization paper, muslin napkins, etc.), closing the wrapping with
autoclave adhesive tape.
Notes for wrapped material
– Wrap instruments individually or, when more than one instrument are placed in the same wrapping, make sure that they are made of the same metal;
– Seal the wrapping with adhesive tape
for autoclaves or heat-sealing machines.
– Do not use staples, pins or other fasteners since they can compromise the maintenance of sterility;
– Arrange the envelopes so as to avoid forming air pockets that obstruct the correct penetration and removal of the steam.
– Orient the envelopes so as to leave the plastic side up and the paper side down (tray side).
– In any case, check that they are correctly positioned, turning them over
, if necessary.
– If possible, place the envelopes edgewise
to the tray, with a suitable support.
– Never
superimpose envelopes on top of each other.
WHENEVER YOU ANTICIPATE PROLONGED STORAGE, ALWAYS WRAP THE INSTRUMENTS. SEE THE CHAPTER “Storing sterilized material
