Sterilization Tracking
The internal paddles should be thoroughly tested at least once every 3 months or every 25
sterilization cycles, whichever occurs first. See Continuity Test Procedures (on page 19) for
information about testing.
To ensure that testing is performed when required, sterilization cycles should be tracked. A
sterilization tracking log is provided below. The tracking log may be reproduced.
