Indications for Use
The SIGMA sterilization pouch and roll are intended to provide health care workers with an effective method to enclose devices intended for sterilization in steam auto claves and via Ethylene Oxide (EO). The recommended steam sterilization cycle parameters are 30 minutes at 121 ℃. The recommended EO sterilization cycle is 4 hours at 55 C with a relative humidity between 50%-85% and a sterilant concentration of 600 mg/L. Furthermore, the sterilization pouch and roll maintains the enclosed devices up until 3 years post sterilization. Lastly, the pouch's external chemical ink indicators are designed to indicate to the user that the pouch has undergone either a steam or EO sterilization process.
Device Story
Sterilization packaging system consisting of pouches and rolls; used by healthcare workers to enclose medical instruments prior to steam or EO sterilization. Composed of medical-grade paper and plastic film (CPP/PET); features external chemical ink indicators that change color upon exposure to sterilization processes. Available in self-sealing, flat, and gusseted configurations. Provides a sterile barrier for up to 3 years post-sterilization. Enables visual confirmation of processing; ensures instrument sterility until point of use.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Validated per AAMI/ANSI/ISO 11607-1:2006. Testing included sterilant penetration, drying time, aeration, biocompatibility (ISO 10993-10:2010), package integrity, material compatibility, sterility maintenance, and chemical indicator efficacy (ISO 11140-1:2005). Results confirmed effective sterilant penetration, negative biocompatibility reactions, and package integrity.

Indications for Use
Indicated for healthcare workers to enclose medical devices for sterilization via steam autoclave (121°C, 30 min) or Ethylene Oxide (55°C, 4 hrs, 50-85% RH, 600 mg/L). Maintains sterility for up to 3 years.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A sterilization wrap (pack, sterilization wrapper, bag, or accessories, is a device intended to be used to enclose another medical device that is to be sterilized by a health care provider.

## 3. Intended Use
The SIGMA sterilization pouch and roll are intended to provide health care workers with an effective method to enclose devices intended for sterilization in steam auto claves and via Ethylene Oxide (EO). The recommended steam sterilization cycle parameters are 30 minutes at 121 ℃. The recommended EO sterilization cycle is 4 hours at 55 C with a relative humidity between 50%-85% and a sterilant concentration of 600 mg/L. Furthermore, the sterilization pouch and roll maintains the enclosed devices up until 3 years post sterilization. Lastly, the pouch's external chemical ink indicators are designed to indicate to the user that the pouch has undergone either a steam or EO sterilization process.
The SIGMA sterilization pouch and roll is offered in the following 5 types:
- Self-sealing sterilization pouches .
- . Sterilization pouches, Flat
- . Sterilization pouches, Gusseted
- . Sterilization rolls, Flat
- . Sterilization rolls, Gusseted
The defining characteristics of the 5 types as follows:
{2}------------------------------------------------
- Self-seating sterilization powches: These pouches are made from a medical grade plastic film that � is heat sealed on three sides. The forth side has an adhesive strip that is used to seal the pouch. Release paper used in the pouch is a laminated sheet with composing structure of PE/paper/PE. It is a strip to cover the adhesive area and is released before seal the pouch. The medical grade paper conforms to recognized material standards and can be sterilized by steam or ethylene oxide gas. The Process Indicators Ink printed on the medical grade paper will exhibit a color change after the pouch is exposed to steam or ethylene oxide gas.
- Sterilization pouches, Flat: These pouches has the same components with the Self-sealing . sterilization pouches, except the forth side is left opened instead of an adhesive strip and will be heat-sealed when using.
- Sterilization pouches, Gusseted: These pouches are the same with the Sterilization pouches, flat, . except that the plastic film is folded on both longest sides instead of flat. This design is convenient to enclose the medical devices with certain height.
- Sterilization rolls, Flat: These rolls are made from a medical grade paper and plastic film that are ● heat sealed on opposite two sides. It will be cut into the suitable length and the opened sides will be heat-sealed. The indicators printed on the medical grade paper are the same with the self-sealing sterilization pouches.
- Sterilization rolls, Gusseted: These rolls are the same with the flat sterilization roll, except that the ● plastic film is folded on both longest sides instead of flat. This design is convenient to enclose the medical devices with certain height.

Furthermore, the sterilization pouch and roll maintains the enclosed devices up until 3 years post sterilization. Lastly, the pouch's external chemical ink indicators are designed to indicate to the user that the pouch has undergone either a steam or EO sterilization process.
The SIGMA sterilization pouch and roll is offered in the following 5 types:
- Self-sealing sterilization pouches: These pouches are made from a medical grade plastic film that . 0 is heat sealed on three sides. The forth side has an adhesive strip that is used to seal the pouch. Release paper used in the pouch is a laminated sheet with composing structure of PE/paper/PE. It is a strip to cover the adhesive area and is released before seal the pouch. The medical grade paper conforms to recognized material standards and can be sterilized by steam or ethylene oxide gas. The Process Indicators Ink printed on the medical grade paper will exhibit a color change after the pouch is exposed to steam or ethylene oxide gas.
- Sterilization pouches, Flat: These pouches has the same components with the Self-sealing . sterilization pouches, except the forth side is left opened instead of an adhesive strip and will be heat-sealed when using.
- Sterilization pouches, Gusseted: These pouches are the same with the Sterilization pouches, flat, . except that the plastic film is folded on both longest sides instead of flat. This design is convenient to enclose the medical devices with certain height.
- Sterilization rolls, Flat: These rolls are made from a medical grade paper and plastic film that are heat sealed on opposite two sides. It will be cut into the suitable length and the opened sides will be heat-sealed. The indicators printed on the medical grade paper are the same with the self-sealing sterilization pouches.
- Sterilization rolls, Gusseted: These rolls are the same with the flat sterilization roll, except that the plastic film is folded on both longest sides instead of flat. This design is convenient to enclose the medical devices with certain height.
