Industrial Ethylene Oxide Sterilization for Medical Devices Workshop
This highly interactive 3 day, advanced workshop assumes that participants are experienced in working with an established ethylene oxide sterilization process, but are now challenged with ensuring the continued effectiveness and assessing change for the product or process. The program combines classroom lecture with real life scenarios to illustrate concepts and situational analyses that provide participants with the opportunity to apply what they learn to actual sterilization scenarios.
Workshop ObjectivesUpon completion of this workshop, participants will be able to:
- Improve development and routine turn-around time
- Make changes to product, equipment, process, and sterilizer location
- Determine if validation or requalification is necessary
- Troubleshoot cycle anomalies
- Optimize the ethylene oxide sterilization process

Who
Should Attend?
This workshop is designed for professionals that have responsibility for making decisions related to the ethylene oxide sterilization process such as introduction of new/modified products, sterilization process improvements, failure investigation, requalification, and validation. AAMI recommends this workshop for those who are experienced in working with an established ethylene oxide sterilization process and NOT professionals that are new to ethylene oxide sterilization.
