The work of preparing

32、 International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liais

33、on with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of te

34、chnical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is dr

35、awn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 25424 was prepared by CEN (as EN 15424:2007) and is submitted for approval under a special “fast-track procedure

36、”, by Technical Committee ISO/TC 198, Sterilization of health care products, in parallel with its approval by the ISO member bodies.

BS EN ISO 25424:2011ISO 25424:2009(E) ISO 2009 All rights reserved viiIntroduction A sterile medical device is one which is free of viable microorganisms. European Standards, which specify require

47、ments for validation and routine control of a sterilization process require, when it is necessary to supply a sterile medical device, that adventitious microbiological contamination of a medical device prior to sterilization be minimized. Even so, medical devices produced under standard manufacturin

48、g conditions in accordance with the requirements for quality management systems (see EN ISO 13485) or which have been subjected to a cleaning process as part of their reprocessing in a health care establishment may, prior to sterilization, have microorganisms on them, albeit in low numbers. Such pro

49、ducts are non-sterile. The purpose of sterilization is to inactivate the microbiological contaminants and thereby transform the non-sterile products into sterile ones. The kinetics of inactivation of a pure culture of microorganisms by physical and/or chemical agents used to sterilize medical devices can generally best be described by an exponential relationship between the numbers of microorganisms surviving and the extent of treatment with the sterilizing agent; inevitably this means that there is always a finite probability that
