How to do a spore test on an autoclave?

NOTE: All autoclaves should be validated by spore testing: Monthly for healthcare use, weekly or daily for dental depending on the frequency of autoclaving. Sites that rarely perform autoclaving, (2-3 times per year) can do spore testing with each time they use the autoclave to assure sterility.

What information needs to go on the autoclave log sheet?

If the repeat spore test result is positive, remove the sterilizer from service and do not use until it has been inspected or repaired and re-challenged with spore tests in three consecutive fully loaded chamber sterilization cycles.

Should records for each autoclave cycle be maintained in an autoclave log?

Entries must be placed in the autoclave log book each time the autoclave is used. These records are used for maintenance/service schedules and reporting any incidents. Entries should include: operators name, date, time, and duration. The log book should be kept adjacent to the autoclave.

What three logs are required to be maintained for the autoclave?

The lab staff must maintain an autoclave log. The log should contain the following details: Date, time, and operators name.

What information should be placed on the package before placed in the autoclave?

Properly labeling packages in an autoclave is essential for ensuring the sterility of medical instruments. Labeling packages with the date, load number of the day, initials of the person packaging, and sterilizer used provides an accurate record for tracing any potential problems related to sterilization.
