Process indicators (e.g. autoclave tape) must be used for all sterilization processes.
It is recommended to control the sterilization process at least once a day using chemical indicator/multivariable chemical indicator.
Biological indicators should be used at regular intervals every 3 months and after repair.
After any repair, the sterilization process must be verified using biological indicators. The repaired autoclave/dry sterilizer should only be used when the sterilization process has been tested and approved.
If using a temporary autoclave/dry sterilizer, the sterilization process must be verified using biological indicators, with satisfactory results before using the equipment.
