- Record every cycle, including daily test cycles and biological (spore) tests, as your infection control guidelines and the sterilizer’s maker require.
- Answer Y or N for each check. Check the printout or display shows the cycle reached its time, temperature and pressure, and file the printout or data with this log.
- Check the chemical indicator on or in each pack has changed before the load is released, and write the cycle number on each pack.
- If a cycle or test fails, don’t use the load. Reprocess it, record the failure, and follow your failure procedure before using the sterilizer again.
