Load Records and Recalls

Captions available

The idea

Sterilization loads are recorded, so each item can be traced to the load and cycle that processed it.

In practice

If a sterilizer malfunction is found, items from the suspect loads are considered nonsterile and recalled, as far as possible.

Where people slip

Records let a facility trace a sterilization failure to the patients involved.
