Recommendations for veterinarians

Equipment used for invasive procedures on animals should be retreated according to the same principles as equipment used on humans.

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.

Der bør udføres periodisk kvalitetskontrol af sterilisationsprocessen hver 3. måned, samt efter reparation.

Efter enhver reparation skal sterilisationsprocessen kontrolleres ved brug af biologiske indikatorer. Den reparerede autoklave/tørsterilisator bør først tages i brug, når sterilisationsprocessen er testet og godkendt. Anvendes låneautoklave/tørsterilisator, skal sterilisationsprocessen kontrolleres ved brug af biologiske indikatorer med tilfredsstillende resultat, før udstyret tages i brug.

If using a temporary autoclave/dry sterilizer, the sterilization process must be verified using biological indicators, with satisfactory results before using the equipment.
