Prep, Packaging & StoragePregunta 81 de 100
A peel pouch is being prepared for a single ring-handled instrument. Which practice is correct?
a.Select a pouch size that lets the item fit without stressing the seals, place the item so the handle enters the pouch first, and do not double pouch unless the pouch manufacturer validates it
b.Fill the pouch completely so the instrument cannot shift during handling
c.Fold the pouch over to fit a long instrument and seal it with tape
d.Write the contents on the paper side with a ballpoint pen
Explicación
A properly sized pouch keeps the seals intact, permits steam entry through the porous side, and allows the package to be opened aseptically with the handle presented first. Overfilling stresses seals, and folding or taping a pouch prevents sterilant contact and creates an unvalidated package. Labeling is done on the plastic side, outside the seal, with a non-bleeding marker, because writing on the paper side can damage the sterile barrier.
