Ensuring Asepsis: The Technological Advancements, Validation Requirements, and Operational Challenges of Modern Sterilization Equipment in Central Sterile Supply
Sterilization Equipment, primarily encompassing steam sterilizers (autoclaves), dry heat, and chemical vapor systems, forms the absolute cornerstone of infection control by ensuring that reusable surgical instruments and medical devices are completely free of all microbial life. Modern units feature advanced monitoring systems and sophisticated pre-vacuum cycles to enhance efficacy, but their reliable operation is dependent upon stringent load preparation, correct cycle selection, and rigorous quality control testing using chemical and biological indicators.
