Description

Shivaah ETO Indicator Tape is a highly reliable and essential tool for monitoring the effectiveness of ethylene oxide (ETO) sterilization processes. Designed for use in healthcare settings, laboratories, and industries where sterilization is crucial, this tape offers a clear and visible indication of successful sterilization. The tape is treated with a chemical indicator that undergoes a distinct color change when exposed to the ETO gas, allowing users to easily confirm that the sterilization cycle has met the necessary conditions.

The tape adheres securely to a variety of surfaces, including paper, plastic, and nonwoven materials, ensuring it stays in place throughout the sterilization process. It is particularly useful for sealing sterilization packs, as it not only keeps the contents secure but also provides a quick visual confirmation of ETO exposure. This reduces the risk of using improperly sterilized equipment, thereby enhancing patient safety and operational efficiency.

Shivaah ETO Indicator Tape is easy to apply, resistant to high temperatures, and compatible with different types of ETO sterilizers. Its high-quality adhesive ensures that it won’t peel or lose its integrity during the sterilization process, making it a dependable choice for any facility committed to maintaining stringent sterilization standards.

Direction to Use

Preparation:

Application:

• Cut a sufficient length of Shivaah ETO Indicator Tape to secure the sterilization pack or container.
• Firmly apply the tape across the opening of the pack or container, ensuring a tight seal to prevent contamination.

Placement in Sterilizer:

• Place the sealed sterilization packs or containers inside the ETO sterilizer. Ensure that the tape is visible for easy monitoring.

Sterilization Process:

• Run the ETO sterilization cycle according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The chemical indicator on the tape will undergo a color change upon exposure to the ETO gas, signaling that the sterilization process has occurred.

Post-Sterilization Check:

• After the cycle is complete, carefully remove the packs or containers from the sterilizer.
• Verify that the Shivaah ETO Indicator Tape has changed color, indicating successful exposure to ETO gas. If the color change is incomplete or not visible, the pack should be considered unsterilized and reprocessed.

Record Keeping:

• For compliance and traceability, document the sterilization process, noting the color change as confirmation of successful sterilization.

Storage:

• Store the sterilized items in a clean, dry environment until they are ready for use. The sealed pack with the indicator tape will provide a visual assurance of sterility until the point of use.
