1、Designation: F 700 93 (Reapproved 2002)Standard Practice forCare and Handling of Intracranial Aneurysm Clips andInstruments1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F 700; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision,

2、the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers recommended procedures for han-dling of neurosurgical intracranial aneurysm clips an

3、d the clipappliers (instruments).1.2 This practice is intended to inform hospital receivingpersonnel, central supply personnel, operating room personnel,and other individuals who will handle intracranial aneurysmclips and the instruments related thereto of recommended careand handling procedures to

4、prevent damage of intracranialaneurysm clips and instruments.1.3 Handling and packaging procedures for the product arenot a part of this practice and are covered in other practices.2. Terminology2.1 Definitions:2.1.1 clip applierany clip holder designed specifically fora particular type clip used du

5、ring surgical procedures involvingthe implantation of intracranial aneurysm clips. This device isreferred to in this practice as a clip applier.2.1.2 intracranial aneurysm clipa device introduced sur-gically to occlude the blood inlet into an intracranial aneurysmwith the intention that it remain wi

6、thin the body following thesurgery. This device is referred to in this practice as an“implant,” specifically as an intracranial aneurysm clip.3. Receiving Implants and Instruments3.1 Receipt:3.1.1 Many implants are wrapped in special packages,envelopes, or other containers. These wrappings should no

7、t beremoved by the receiving personnel.3.1.2 Carefully handle nonsterilized implants and instru-ments upon receipt to avoid scratching, marking, or abrasionby other implants, instruments, unpacking tools, or by drop-ping or otherwise endangering the surface finish or configura-tion.3.2 TransportTran

8、sport in a manner to preclude anydamage or alteration to the received condition of the implant orinstrument (clip applier).3.3 Storage:3.3.1 Store the aneurysm clips and appliers prior to use insuch a manner to maintain the devices surface finish orconfiguration, or both.3.3.2 Implants will be ident

9、ified by a unique code on thesurface of the device. When implanted, it is necessary that thetype of aneurysm clip and its code be noted in the operativereport.3.3.3 Stock RotationThe principle of first in, first out, isrecommended.3.3.4 Store implants in the operating room in such a manneras to isol

10、ate and protect the implants surface, sterility, andconfiguration. Keep implants made of different metals sepa-rated.4. Cleaning and Sterilization4.1 Prior to resterilization and promptly following eachsurgical procedure, thoroughly and carefully clean all instru-ments and implants with approved cle

11、aning techniques. Ultra-sonic cleaners or hand scrubbing are suitable methods ifcarefully done. The method employed should be utilized toprevent impact, scratching, bending, or surface contact withany materials that might affect the implant or instrumentconfiguration. Aneurysm clips must not be open

12、ed except bytheir specific applier.4.2 Any clip that has been implanted or in direct contactwith blood or body fluids and is not used in the procedureshould not be reused in any subsequent procedure. The clipsshould be discarded; in accordance with tracing requirements,the manufacturer must be infor

13、med of each clip that isdiscarded.4.3 After cleaning, rinse the neurosurgical intracranial an-eurysm clips and instruments completely free of all residualsincluding soap, detergent, or cleaning solutions; and drythoroughly. Devote special attention to hinges on the instru-ments and recesses on the c

14、lips since these are points thatentrap both chemicals and rinse water. In so doing, the clipmust not be opened except by its designated applier.4.4 Lubricate clip appliers that require lubrication immedi-ately after drying. Follow the recommendations of the manu-facturers of such instruments explici

15、tly as to the method, type,and amount of lubricant. Do not lubricate the clips.1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee F04 on Medical andSurgical Materials and Devices and is the direct responsibility of SubcommitteeF04.31 on Neurosurgical Standards.Current edition approved March

17、otects the integrity of the aneurysmclips and appliers.4.6 Do not sterilize implants in contact with instruments orimplants of other materials. Metallic oxide could transfer to theimplant, initiating an unacceptable condition.5. Use of Neurosurgical Intracranial Aneurysm Clips andAppliers5.1 Open an

18、d close an aneurysm clip with the clip applierspecifically manufactured to handle that particular aneurysmclip. At no time should an aneurysm clip be opened with thefingertips.5.1.1 Any aneurysm clip that has been opened with thefingertips should be discarded and never used in a patient.5.2 No attem

19、pt should be made to alter the configuration ofpreformed aneurysm clip legs or springs.5.2.1 Dispose of intracranial aneurysm clips that exhibitsurface or configuration damage.5.2.2 Dispose of intracranial aneurysm clips whose perfor-mance capabilities have been jeopardized by mishandling orimproper
