Intended Use
The SPSmedical SporView® PA Culture Set is intended for use with the STERIS System 1® sterilizer using STERIS® 20 sterilant only. The STERIS System 1® is a liquid chemical sterilization process. The SporView PA Culture Set provides independent confirmation that sterilization conditions were achieved during the STERIS System 1® processing cycle. A reduced incubation time of 24 hours has been validated for the Spor View PA Culture Set using SPSmedical's SporView® culture media.
Device Story
Biological indicator for monitoring STERIS System 1 liquid chemical sterilization; utilizes paper strips inoculated with 10^5 G. stearothermophilus spores. Device processed in sterilizer via transfer clip; recovered in sterile modified soybean casein broth media containing color change indicator. Provides independent confirmation of sterilization conditions (1,000 ppm peracetic acid at 50°C). Survival/kill time parameters: survives 41 seconds, killed at 6 minutes. Used by healthcare staff to verify sterilization efficacy on exterior surface loads. Results interpreted via visual color change in media after 24-hour incubation; confirms whether sterilization cycle achieved required parameters.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Validation performed to confirm survival at 41 seconds and kill at 6 minutes in 1,000 ppm peracetic acid at 50°C. Reduced incubation time of 24 hours validated using SporView culture media.
Technological Characteristics
Biological indicator; paper carrier inoculated with 10^5 G. stearothermophilus spores. Includes modified soybean casein broth with color change indicator and transfer clip. Designed for 1,000 ppm peracetic acid at 50°C. No electronic components or software.
Indications for Use
Indicated for monitoring sterilization efficacy of the STERIS System 1 liquid chemical sterilization process using STERIS 20 sterilant. Intended for use by healthcare personnel to confirm sterilization conditions on exterior surface loads.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Biological sterilization process indicator: A device intended for use by a health care provider to accompany products being sterilized through a sterilization procedure and to monitor adequacy of sterilization. The device consists of a known number of microorganisms, of known resistance to the mode of sterilization, in or on a carrier and enclosed in a protective package. Subsequent growth or failure of the microorganisms to grow under suitable conditions indicates the adequacy of sterilization. Physical/chemical sterilization process indicator: A device intended for use by a health care provider to accompany products being sterilized through a sterilization procedure and to monitor one or more parameters of the sterilization process. The adequacy of the sterilization conditions as measured by these parameters is indicated by a visible change in the device.

| Trade Name: | SporView® PA Culture Set |
| Classification: | Sterilization Process Indicator - 21 CFR 880.2800 (a) Class I |
| Predicate Device: | Castle® SPOR-TEST PA Biological Indicator Kit (K020205) |
#### Device Description:
Spor View PA Culture Set is intended to monitor the STERIS System 1® peracetic acid sterilization process using the STERIS® 20 sterilant. The product contains paper strips the are inoculated with G. stearothermophilus spores (formally known as Bacillus stearothermonities) at a nominal population of 1 x 10 per strip. Sterile tubes of Spor View Culture Media mopiditied soybean casein broth) and a transfer clip are included. The product is intended to be uned in en identical manner as the Castle® SPOR-TEST PA Biological Indicator Kit.
### Intended Use:
The SporView® PA Culture Set is only intended to monitor the STERIS System 1® liquid chemical sterilization system using STERIS® 20 sterilant. The SporViews PA Culture Set was qualified using Spor View" Culture Media. The use of the product is restricted to the Sport Views biological indicator spore strip and media only. When tested at 1,000 ppm peracetic acid, 50 ℃ the Spor View PA Culture Set will survive at 41 seconds and will be killed at 6 aminutes.
## Comparison to the Predicate Device:
- Both devices are exclusively used to monitor the STERIS System 1® peracetic acid . process.
- Both devices are assessed in process conditions of 1000 parts per million peracetic . acid at 50°C.
- Both devices use a paper carrier inoculated with 105 spores of G. stearothermophilus .
- Both devices are processed in the sterilizer when held by a transfer clip. .
- Both devices are open-loop biological indicators that are recovered in tubes of sterile . growth media.
- Both use a growth medium that is modified with a color change indicator. .
- . Both devices may only monitor sterilization efficacy on exterior surfaces loads processed in the STERIS System 1 peracetic acid process.
### Conclusion:
The SporView PA Culture Set is substantially equivalent the Castle® SPOR-TEST PA Biological Indicator Kit for monitoring the STERIS System 19 peracetic acid process.
