PSU Steam Sterilization Cycle Management
Fenómeno del problema
[Problem Phenomenon] PSU medical devices show decreased transparency and strength after multiple steam sterilizations
Análisis de la causa
PSU can withstand steam sterilization but its cycle capability is lower than PESU/PPSU; repeated sterilization at 121-134°C accumulates thermo-oxidative aging; material selection must match the number of sterilization cycles
Solución
For high sterilization cycle situations, switch to PESU (1000+ cycles) or PPSU; manage PSU parts by sterilization cycle life; sterilization parameters follow the 121°C procedure without exceeding temperature
Conclusión clave
PSU sterilization resistance has a cycle upper limit; switching to PESU is safer for high-cycle situations; After confirming effectiveness, solidify the parameters and practices into the work instructions to prevent recurrence
