Intended Use
Use the 3M™ Attest™ Rapid Readout Biological Indicator 1295 in conjunction with the 3M Attest™ Auto-reader 490H as a standard method of routine monitoring of vaporized hydrogen peroxide sterilization processes in STERRAD® 100S, STERRAD® NX (Standard and Advanced cycles) and 100NX (Standard, Flex, Express and Duo cycles) systems.
Device Story
Self-contained biological indicator for monitoring vaporized hydrogen peroxide sterilization; consists of polycarbonate sleeve, spore carrier (Geobacillus stearothermophilus), and media ampoule. Device placed in sterilizer; after cycle, user incubates in 3M Attest Auto-reader 490H. Reader detects fluorescence from enzyme activity; fluorescence indicates sterilization failure. Chemical indicator on cap changes from blue to pink upon exposure to hydrogen peroxide. Used in clinical settings to verify sterilization efficacy; provides 4-hour readout. Benefits patient by ensuring instruments are properly sterilized before reuse.
Indicated for routine monitoring of vaporized hydrogen peroxide sterilization processes in STERRAD 100S, STERRAD NX, and 100NX systems using the 3M Attest Auto-reader 490H.
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.

Dear Dr. Mortensen,
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.
