subject: How To Reduce Eo Residuals In Medical Devices [print this page] Why Should You Attend: Why Should You Attend:
The revision to ISO 10993-7:2008 Biological Evaluation of Medical DevicesPart 7: Ethylene Oxide Sterilization Residuals, significantly reduced the amount of residual EO or its by-products allowed to be left on Medical devices. The transition period defined to reach compliance with the new EO residual limits ends on October 2011. The new EO residual limits impose a tremendous challenge as its requires a significant investment of time, effort and capital in middle of a tough economic climate.
This webinar will offer ways to re-evaluate, re-design, or re-engineer your products, test methods and/or sterilization process to find opportunities for the simplest, fastest and most economical solutions to the problem. Additionally this webinar will offer ideas to transform a challenge into a potential opportunity for cost reduction. We will also discuss the practical approach to fulfill the regulation requirements.
