During a steam cycle the sterilizer aborts and displays an air leak alarm. What is the correct response?

An aborted cycle means the process was not completed as validated, so the entire load is treated as unsterile and must be reprocessed after the equipment problem is resolved. An air leak specifically means air remained in the chamber and steam penetration cannot be assumed. External indicators show only that a package was exposed to some conditions, and a Bowie-Dick test performed later says nothing about a load that already failed.
