SELF- STUDYSERIESLESSON NO. 83 JULY 2005 Ozone SterilizationLEARNING the properties of Ozone that make it an attractive low-temperature the brief history of Ozone advantages of using Ozone basic procedures required for Ozone background information about the safety of the Ozone Sterilization materials, items, and packaging that are or are not recommended for use with theozone Sterilization surgical devices that help physiciansperform modern miracles are constantly beingintroduced by medical technology. These newdevices also create new challenges for theCentral Service (CS) technicians who mustprocess them for reuse. Because of theireffectiveness and cost efficiency, steamsterilization units have long been the preferredmethod for reprocessing surgical devices. Thematerials used to construct many of the newestsurgical instruments, however, become damagedwhen they are processed in a heat or moistureenvironment and so, these devices require a low-temperature Sterilization oxide (EtO) has become the mostpopular low-temperature alternative because ofthe wide range of materials with which it can beused and because of its effectiveness indestroying microorganisms.
Objective 3: Discuss advantages of using ozone sterilization. Ozone’s ability to destroy pathogens at low cost in a worker-safe environment was noted
