Intended Use

The InstruSafe® Sterilization Container is a reusable sterilization container system intended to be used to enclose another medical device that is to be sterilized by a healthcare provider. It is intended to allow sterilization of the enclosed device and also maintain sterility for 180 days. The InstruSafe® Sterilization Container includes accessories such as trays, baskets, filters, data cards and tamper proof locks.

Device Story

The InstruSafe® Sterilization Container is a reusable system designed to enclose surgical instruments for sterilization, storage, and transport. It consists of anodized aluminum alloy lids and bottoms, available in various sizes (full, 3/4, 1/2, and XL), used with single-use paper filters. The device is operated by healthcare personnel in clinical settings. Instruments are placed in internal trays or baskets within the container. The system is compatible with pre-vacuum steam sterilization cycles (132°C for 4 minutes, 30-minute minimum dry time). By providing a protective, filtered environment, the container ensures the sterility of the enclosed instruments for up to 180 days, facilitating safe handling and storage of surgical sets.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Testing included pre-vacuum steam sterilization efficacy and thermal profiling, dry time, maintenance of sterility (180 days), microbial aerosol challenge, biocompatibility (ISO 10993-1), mechanical cleaning, and physical integrity testing (handle, gasket, lid/base, and lock compatibility) per AAMI/ANSI standards (ST77, ST79, TIR12).

Technological Characteristics

Materials: Anodized aluminum alloy, stainless steel, silicone. Design: Perforated/solid containers with single-use paper filters. Sterilization: Pre-vacuum steam (132°C). Biocompatibility: ISO 10993-1 compliant. Standards: AAMI TIR12, ANSI/AAMI ST77, ANSI/AAMI ST79.

Indications for Use

Indicated for use by healthcare providers to enclose medical devices, including metal surgical instruments (forceps, scissors, clamps) and lumened/cannulated instruments, for sterilization in pre-vacuum steam sterilizers and to maintain sterility for 180 days.
