Intended Use

The U&U sterilization pouch and roll are intended to provide health care workers with an effective method to enclose devices intended for sterilization in steam and Ethylene Oxide (EtO). The recommended gravity steam sterilization cycle parameters are 30 minutes at 121°C. The recommended EtO 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 90 Days 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 EtO sterilization process.

Device Story

U&U Sterilization Pouch and Roll consist of medical porous paper and plastic film (CPP) heat-sealed on three sides; fourth side sealed via adhesive tape or heat-sealing machine. Used by healthcare workers to enclose medical instruments for gravity steam (121°C) or EtO (55°C, 600mg/L) sterilization. External chemical ink indicators (Class 1) change color (Steam: Green to Purple; EtO: Yellow to Cocoa) to confirm exposure to sterilization process. Pouch maintains sterility for 90 days post-sterilization. Protects instruments during storage and transport; ensures sterility maintenance until point of use.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Validated via physical testing of sterilized finished devices: seal strength, package burst, dye migration, sterilant penetration, package integrity, material compatibility, and biocompatibility (ISO 10993-4, ISO 10993-10). Microbial barrier properties confirmed via ASTM 1608 (LRV > 3.5). Chemical indicator efficacy and shelf-life testing performed.

Technological Characteristics

Materials: Medical porous paper (top), medical plastic film (CPP, bottom), two-sided adhesive tape. Class 1 chemical process indicators (steam/EtO). Standards: AAMI/ANSI ST77, AAMI TIR22, ISO 11607-1/2, ISO 11140-1. Dimensions: Various pouch/roll sizes. Sterilization: Gravity steam (121°C) or EtO (55°C).

Indications for Use

Indicated for healthcare workers to enclose medical devices for steam or EtO sterilization. Compatible with reusable surgical instruments (clamps, scissors, retractors, pliers), endoscopes, reusable containers, elastic products (rubber, latex, silicone, plastics), HF-cables, handpieces, power tools, and textile materials (surgical towels).

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. It is intended to allow sterilization of the enclosed medical device and also to maintain sterility of the enclosed device until used.

Dear Mr. Wang:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.

## 4. Devices Description:

The U&U Sterilization Pouch and Roll are manufactured from paper and medical plastic film that are heat sealed on three sides. The fourth side has an adhesive tape that is used to seal the pouch or heat-sealed by the heat-seal machine. The paper conforms to recognized material standards and can be sterilized by steam and Eto. The Sterilization Pouch has the same intended use, Essential Component, Raw material, Sterilization method, manufacturing methods and same technological characteristics as the predicate device. Substantial equivalent to the predicate device was established by physical testing of the sterilized finished devices, as well as, performance of these finished devices (seal strength, package burst, and dye migration).
