CSSD / Sterilization
Every instrument set traced through every cycle
Tracks every instrument set through decontamination and sterilisation following WHO, AAMI ST79 and ISO 17665 — receive by scan, wash and pack with a per-instrument check, sterilizer loads released on indicator, temperature and hold-time checks, and a sterile store that issues earliest expiry first.
What this module solves
Without a traced cycle, a set can reach theatre without a release check, an implant load can be used before its biological indicator is read, and a positive indicator cannot be traced back to the patients it touched.
What your facility gains
- A load cannot be released without its indicator, temperature and hold-time checks
- Packs are issued by expiry and traced to the department or patient
- A recall lists exactly who to follow up
- Aligned with WHO, AAMI ST79 and ISO 17665
