The subject instrument trays are suitable for use in prevacuum steam and high temperature gravity steam sterilization methods. The subject instrument trays are not intended to maintain sterility; they are intended to be used in conjunction with a validated sterilization wrap in order to maintain sterility of the enclosed devices. ## Device Story Instrument trays designed to house and protect reusable surgical instruments during sterilization, storage, and transport. Trays facilitate sterilant exposure to contents during steam sterilization cycles. Used in clinical settings by healthcare personnel. Trays are not sterile barriers; must be used with validated sterilization wraps. Benefits include organized instrument management and protection of devices during processing. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. Performance testing conducted in accordance with AAMI ST77:2006 Containment Devices for reusable medical device sterilization. ## Technological Characteristics Sterilization tray for reusable surgical instruments. Compatible with pre-vacuum steam (132-135°C) and high-temperature gravity steam (132°C) sterilization. Designed for use with validated sterilization wraps. No software or electronic components. ## Regulatory 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. ## Predicate Devices - Smith & Nephew Instrument Tray ([K073551](/device/K073551.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

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. If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. {3}------------------------------------------------ ## Page 2 -- Ms. Acker Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies.
