This webinar will discuss the role of Process Challenge Devices (PCDs) both during ethylene oxide (EO) validation and during routine processing. It will explain the difference in requirements for PCD during both the processes.
What makes an appropriate PCD?
Are the requirements for PCDs different during validation versus routine processing?
How can you ensure consistency in your PCDs?
How should you evaluate or compare PCDs?
When is requalification of PCDs required?
Why Should You Attend:
Since Process Challenge Devices (PCDs) are used so commonly during both ethylene oxide (EO) validation and during routine processing, it is important to understand what the ultimate purpose of the PCD. Choosing the wrong PCD, i.e. one that is overly resistant, can result in additional cost and added time to the routine sterilization process. Whereas choosing the wrong PCD, i.e. one that is not resistant enough, can result in an inadequate sterilization process. While the former situation is undesirable for your business the latter situation can result in harm to the patient. This webinar will outline how to avoid both of these risks to your business.Areas Covered in the Webinar:
