ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. Intern

31、9:51:48 GMT+00:00 2006, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSI vi Introduction A sterile medical device is one which is free of viable microorganisms. International standards that specify requirements for validation and routine control of sterilization processes require, when it is necessary to supply a sterile
32、 medical device, that adventitious microbiological contamination of a medical device prior to sterilization be minimized. Even so, medical devices produced under standard manufacturing conditions in accordance with the requirements for quality management systems (see, for example, ISO 13485) may, pr
33、ior to sterilization, have microorganisms on them, albeit in low numbers. Such products are non-sterile. The purpose of sterilization is to inactivate the microbiological contaminants and thereby transform the non-sterile products into sterile ones. The kinetics of inactivation of a pure culture of
34、microorganisms by physical and/or chemical agents used to sterilize medical devices generally can best be described by an exponential relationship between the number of microorganisms surviving and the extent of treatment with the sterilizing agent; inevitably this means that there is always a finit
35、e probability that a microorganism may survive regardless of the extent of treatment applied. For a given treatment, the probability of survival is determined by the number and resistance of microorganisms and by the environment in which the organisms exist during treatment. It follows that the ster
36、ility of any one product in a population subjected to sterilization processing cannot be guaranteed and the sterility of a processed population is defined in terms of the probability of there being a viable microorganism present on a product item. ISO 17665 describes requirements that, if met, will
37、provide a moist heat sterilization process intended to sterilize medical devices, which has appropriate microbicidal activity. Furthermore, compliance with the requirements ensures this activity is both reliable and reproducible so that predictions can be made, with reasonable confidence, that there
38、 is a low level of probability of there being a viable microorganism present on product after sterilization. Specification of this probability is a matter for regulatory authorities and may vary from country to country (see, for example, EN 556-1 and ANSI/AAMI ST67). Generic requirements of the qual
39、ity management system for design and development, production, installation and servicing are given in ISO 9001 and particular requirements for quality management systems for medical device production are given in ISO 13485. The standards for quality management systems recognise that, for certain pro
40、cesses used in manufacturing, the effectiveness of the process cannot be fully verified by subsequent inspection and testing of the product. Sterilization is an example of such a process. For this reason, sterilization processes are validated for use, the performance of the sterilization process is
41、monitored routinely and the equipment is maintained. Exposure to a properly validated, accurately controlled sterilization process is not the only factor associated with the provision of reliable assurance that the product is sterile and, in this regard, suitable for its intended use. Attention is t
42、herefore given to a number of factors including: a) the microbiological status of incoming raw materials and/or components; b) the validation and routine control of any cleaning and disinfection procedures used on the product; c) the control of the environment in which the product is manufactured, a
43、ssembled and packaged; d) the control of equipment and processes; e) the control of personnel and their hygiene; f) the manner and materials in which the product is packaged; g) the conditions under which product is stored. EN ISO 17665-1:2006 vii The type of contamination on a product to be sterili
44、zed varies and this has an impact upon the effectiveness of a sterilization process. It is preferable that products that have been used in a health care setting and that are being presented for resterilization in accordance with the manufacturers instructions (see ISO 17664) be regarded as special c
45、ases. There is the potential for such products to possess a wide range of contaminating microorganisms and residual inorganic and/or organic contamination in spite of the application of a cleaning process. Hence, particular attention has to be given to the validation and control of the cleaning and
46、disinfection processes used during reprocessing. This part of ISO 17665 describes the requirements for ensuring that the activities associated with the process of moist heat sterilization are performed properly. These activities are described in documented work programmes designed to demonstrate tha
47、t the moist heat sterilization process will consistently yield sterile products on treatment with process variables falling within the predetermined limits. The requirements are the normative parts of this part of ISO 17665 with which compliance is claimed. The guidance given in the informative anne
48、xes is not normative and is not provided as a checklist for auditors. The guidance provides explanations and methods that are regarded as being suitable means for complying with the requirements. Methods other than those given in the guidance may be used, if they are effective in achieving complianc
49、e with the requirements of this part of ISO 17665. The development, validation and routine control of a sterilization process comprise a number of discrete but interrelated activities, e.g. calibration, maintenance, product definition, process definition, installation qualification, operational qualification and performance qualification. While the activities required by this part of ISO 17665 have been grouped together and are presented in a particular order, this part
