摘要

Abstract

Objective

To study the wet pack incidence of rigid containers applying different structures of silicone protective pads for packaging instruments.

Methods

72 surgical instruments were packed in rigid containers and divided into three groups according to the different structures of silicone pads. The rigid container boxes and the instruments loaded in the three groups were the same

and the silicone pads used in groups A and B were flat-bottomed on one side and papillary on the other side. All three groups adopted the same sterilization procedure with pressure steam

and the wet pack incidences was counted after the sterilization procedure.

Results

The wet pack incidences in groups A and B was 59.5% and 29.8%

respectively

which was significantly higher than that in group C with 0%. The difference was statistically significant (

0.05).

Conclusion

The wet pack incidence in rigid container boxes with different silicone pads is related to the structure of the built-in silicone pads. In groups A and B

steam is not able to penetrate because of the small density of the silicone pad grid openings. The steam in the box is not smoothly discharged

and condensate accumulation is not easy to dry. In group C

silicone pad with more grids and large grid openings is conducive to sterilization steam penetration

resulting in smooth discharge of the steam in the rigid container box and less condensate accumulation. When the rigid container box applies different structures of silicone protection pads to protect the instruments for packaging instruments

the silicone pads with large grids and flat structures should be adopted to prevent the wet packs and ensure the quality of sterilization.
