DINEN 13060:2015-03EN 13060:2014(E)6 Introduction Small steam sterilizers are widely used for medical purposes, e.g. in gener

40、al medical practice, dentistry, podiatry, facilities for personal hygiene and beauty care and also veterinary practice. They are also used for materials and equipment which are likely to come into contact with blood or bodily fluids, e.g. implements used by beauty therapists, tattooists, body pierce

41、rs and hairdressers. The specific nature of such sterilization loads used within these fields of application call for different performance requirements for the sterilization cycles and hence different corresponding test methods. This European Standard specifies the general requirements for small st

42、eam sterilizers and associated test methods. Performance is defined by reference to standard test loads. These are used to define a basic minimum performance and are not necessarily related to specific medical devices. It is the responsibility of the user and the manufacturer of the device to be ste

43、rilized to determine that any particular cycle is suitable for sterilizing a particular device. The performance tests specified in this standard can also be used by the manufacturer of the device to be sterilized to specify the appropriate performance for decontamination processes according to the r

44、equirements for information to be given by medical device manufacturers according to EN ISO 17664. This will enable users to identify the specific sterilizer performance required to safely process their devices. The performance requirements specified in this document are not intended for the process

45、 to be effective in inactivating the causative agents of spongiform encephalopathies such as scrapie, bovine spongiform encephalopathy and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. However, some national regulations require the use of modified steam processes as part of a general prion decontamination programme. I

46、t is essential that the sterilizer and associated equipment is used only for the sterilization of the type of products for which it is designed. The choice of sterilizer, sterilization cycle or quality of services provided can be inappropriate for a particular product. Therefore the suitability of a

47、 sterilization procedure for a particular product needs to be verified by validation (see EN ISO 17665-1). DIN EN 13060:2015-03 EN 13060:2014(E)7 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the performance requirements and test methods for small steam sterilizers and sterilization cycles which are used

48、 for medical purposes or for materials that are likely to come into contact with blood or body fluids. This European Standard applies to automatically controlled small steam sterilizers that generate steam using electrical heaters or use steam that is generated by a system external to the sterilizer. This European Standard applies to small steam sterilizers used primarily for the sterilization of medical devices with a chamber volume of less than 60 l and unable to accommodate a sterilization module (300 mm 300 mm 600 mm).
