Device Story

Dana Emulating Indicator is a chemical sterilization process indicator used in hospital pre-vacuum steam sterilizers. It functions by monitoring critical parameters of temperature (270°F/132°C) and time (4 minutes). The device features a visual indicator where a dark bar travels along a window into an 'accept' area upon exposure to the specified steam sterilization conditions. This provides immediate visual confirmation to healthcare personnel that the sterilization cycle parameters were achieved. It is intended for over-the-counter use.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only.

Technological Characteristics

Chemical sterilization process indicator; visual color-change/movement mechanism; designed for 270°F (132°C) pre-vacuum steam sterilization cycles; non-electronic; passive indicator.

Indications for Use

Indicated for use in 4 minute 270°F (132°C) pre-vacuum steam sterilization processes to indicate that sterilization conditions were met.

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.
