Who Needs Single Use Device Reprocessing?

  • Hospitals and surgical centers seeking to extend the lifecycle of disposable devices.
  • Medical device manufacturers ensuring compliance with reprocessing regulations.
  • Third-party reprocessors managing high-volume device cleaning and sterilization.

How Does Single Use Device Reprocessing Work?

  1. Device Collection & Inspection – Devices are collected, sorted, and inspected for contamination or damage before reprocessing.
  2. Cleaning & Decontamination – High-level disinfection removes biological residues using automated cleaning systems and chemical agents.
  3. Sterilization & Packaging – Devices are terminally sterilized using methods like ethylene oxide (EtO), gamma irradiation, or steam sterilization, then sealed in protective packaging.
  4. Regulatory Compliance & Documentation – Full traceability is maintained through compliance records, batch testing, and FDA regulatory filings.
