How to Perform Sterilization Monitoring for Low-Temperature Vaporized Hydrogen Peroxide Sterilizers?
Regulatory Basis: Sterilization efficacy monitoring should be conducted in accordance with WS310.3 "Central Sterile Supply Department (CSSD) - Part 3: Surveillance Standard for Cleaning, Disinfection and Sterilization" and the guidance provided in the sterilizer user manual. Monitoring Content: Physical monitoring, chemical monitoring, and biological monitoring.
Key Bacteria in Biological Indicators and Their Roles
Biological Indicators (BIs) are critical tools for validating sterilization processes. Their core component is specific types of bacterial spores, selected for their extreme resistance to sterilization conditions. These spores simulate the hardest-to-kill microorganisms, ensuring the effectiveness of sterilization. Below are the common bacteria used in BIs and their applications:
Biological Indicators in Hospitals: Ensuring Sterility for Patient Safety
In hospitals, where infection control is paramount, biological indicators (BIs) serve as critical tools to validate the effectiveness of sterilization processes. Steam sterilization, used for surgical instruments, implants, and other medical devices, must consistently achieve sterility to prevent healthcare-associated infections (HAIs).
Biological Indicators for Steam Sterilization
Steam sterilization, commonly known as autoclaving, is a cornerstone of infection control in healthcare, pharmaceuticals, and laboratory settings. While physical and chemical monitoring methods (e.g., temperature, pressure, and indicator strips) provide real-time data, biological indicators (BIs) remain the gold standard for validating the efficacy of sterilization cycles.
