Ethylene Oxide (EO) Sterilization For Medical Devices Introductory Course: Principles, Validation (IQ/OQ), Monitoring Controls And Residual Testing Essentials (ONLINE EVENT: May 14, 2026)
Dublin, April 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "An Introduction to Ethylene Oxide (EO) Sterilization for Medical Devices (May 14, 2026)" training has been added to ResearchAndMarkets's offering.
Sterile devices are free of viable microorganisms and EO sterilization is one of the key processes in the production of sterile medical devices.
Regulations for medical devices include particular requirements for devices supplied or intended to be used in a sterile state. These regulatory requirements relate to general safety and performance aspects for the products, and the requirements for independent, third-party conformity assessment of the processes for achieving sterility. Evidence of successful sterilization by Ethylene Oxide is important and expected when demonstrating conformity with the regulations.
These requirements have been supported by a portfolio of standards on:
- Designating products as sterile; Validating and routinely controlling the sterilization process; Determining whether the sterilization process has any adverse effect on the devices; and Maintaining sterility over time with appropriate sterile barrier systems
This course provides an introduction to these regulatory requirements as they relate to EO sterilization and how manufacturers may demonstrate compliance.
Who Should Attend:
- Microbiologists and sterilization professionals Quality Management System (QMS) specialists Regulatory Compliance specialists Internal Auditors Regulatory and Quality professionals
Key Topics Covered:
- Ethylene Oxide Sterilisation Principles Validation of Ethylene Oxide Sterilisation Installation and Operational Qualification (IQ & OQ) Routine Monitoring and Control Ethylene Oxide Residual Control and Testing
