INSTRUMENTS MATERIALS The instruments are manufactured from various grades of titanium, stainless steel, aluminum, silicone, and other polymers. MULTIPLE USE and SINGLE USE • Instruments are intended for multiple use unless identified on the label for single use only. • Single use instruments are intended to be disposed after use on a single patient during a single procedure. • Do not reuse single use instruments as this may increase the risks of failure and cross-contamination. • Multiple use instruments are only intended for use on a single patient and a single procedure before requiring processing. • Multiple (limited) use instruments, such as drills and reamers, have a limited lifespan. Immediately replace any multiple use instrument if performance becomes inadequate. • Multiple use instruments potentially contaminated with transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) agents shall not be processed for reuse. IMPORTANT • The bone graft drills are available in various sizes, and it is important to choose the bone graft drill that meets both the size of the patient and the harvesting site. • Protect instruments against scratching and nicking to prevent stress concentrations, which can lead to instrument failure. • Near the point of use: Wipe excess contamination from instruments and prevent any soil from drying. Instruments with substantial or dried soil are particularly difficult to reliably process. Transport contaminated instruments for processing as soon as possible after use. • Avoid prolonged instrument contact with iodine and saline. • Handle and transport soiled instruments in a manner that avoids contamination of any unused implants.

PROCESSING

Important: Processing personnel must be qualified with suitable training and experience. Use proper personal protective equipment (PPE) when working with contaminated devices. IMPORTANT • Promptly perform the processing steps to limit microbial growth and maximize the effectiveness of sterilization. • Inspect implants for contamination by blood or tissue and dispose of them when found. Do not process contaminated implants. • Prevent instrument corrosion by minimizing contact with solutions containing iodine, chlorine, and saline or other metal salts.

• Prevent damage to the protective anodization layer on aluminum instruments by avoiding contact with solutions < 4 pH and > 9 pH, especially if they contain sodium carbonate or sodium hydroxide. • Repeated processing of anodized metals may cause colors to fade but this does not affect the function of the device. • Avoid cleaning agents containing aldehydes since they can denature and coagulate proteins (fixation). • Enzymatic detergents are well suited for loosening protein-based contamination. - Use a neutral pH enzymatic detergent. - Use a low foaming solution to allow visibility of the device during cleaning. • Closely follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the safety, storage, mixing, water quality, exposure time, temperature, replacement, and disposal of cleaning agents. • Devices potentially contaminated with transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) agents shall not be processed or reused. These processing instructions are not suitable for inactivation of TSE agents. Observe hospital procedures, practice guidelines, and/or government regulations for the proper handling and disposal of devices potentially contaminated with TSE agents. • Utility water: Refer to AAMI TIR34* when instructed to use utility water. Utility water is typically municipal or tap water but may require additional treatment to be suitable for use. • Critical water: Refer to AAMI TIR34* when instructed to use critical water. Critical water is highly treated and has very low organic and inorganic content with an endotoxin level under 10 EU/mL. Suitable water may also be specified in national pharmacopeias, national standards, and hospital protocols. * Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI). Water for the reprocessing of medical devices. AAMI TIR34:2014/(R)2017. Arlington, VA. MANUAL CLEANING 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.

Rinse the contaminated instruments under running cold utility water to reduce heavy surface contamination. Dispose of any used instruments intended for single use only. Place the contaminated instruments in enzymatic solution* until completely submerged to minimize the spraying of solution. Actuate all moveable parts to allow detergent to contact all surfaces. Soak for a minimum of ten (10) minutes. Scrub the instruments using a soft-bristled brush to remove all visible debris. Do not use stainless steel or other abrasives as these may damage the surface. - When possible, scrub the instruments when totally submerged to minimize the spraying of fluid. Some instruments may require special consideration: - Clean the instruments with all parts loosened. Clean the instruments disassembled if they are designed to be taken apart. - Use a water jet to flood cleaning solution into challenging areas, such as mating surfaces, springs, coils, cannulations, blind holes, flutes, cutting teeth, and flexible parts to flush out any trapped soil. - Operate movable parts and rotate (as necessary) while scrubbing to ensure that all crevices are accessible. - Carefully clean cannulated parts and challenging areas using an appropriately sized brush. - Optionally sonicate for 10 to 15 minutes using a fresh, neutral pH ultrasonic cleaning solution. Follow the ultrasonic cleaner and detergent manufacturer’s instructions. Important: Any previous surface damage may increase due to ultrasonic cleaning.

8. Perform an initial rinse for at least 3 minutes using clean, soft, utility water in the temperature range of 25°C to 35°C (77°F to 95°F) to remove all signs of contamination and cleaning agent.

- Actuate all movable parts. - Flush out cannulations and complex mechanisms. 9. Repeat the previous processing steps if visible residue remains present. 10. Perform a final rinse for at least 1 minute using critical water to displace minerals and other impurities found in utility water. Do not use saline solutions for final rinsing because they may interfere with disinfection and sterilization. - Actuate all moving parts - Pay particular attention to cannulations and blind holes as well as hinges and joints between mating surfaces. - Rinse cannulations at least three times with a syringe (volume 1-50ml). 11. Remove excess moisture from the instruments using a clean, absorbent, non-shedding wipe. 12. Allow the instruments to thoroughly dry. Any moisture may affect sterilization and devices may remain wet after the drying period. * Manual cleaning was validated using STERIS Prolystica 2X Concentrate Enzymatic Presoak and Cleaner. WASHER - DISINFECTOR: AUTOMATED CLEANING - THERMAL DISINFECTION Important: Automated cleaning requires manual cleaning. Always perform the previous manual cleaning steps first. Follow the washer-disinfector manufacturer’s instructions explicitly. • Process the devices using a standard washing and thermal disinfection cycle in a washer-disinfector compliant with EN ISO 15883-1 and EN ISO 15883-2 or equivalent national standards. • Remove all implants if a lubrication phase will be used. • Process all trays removed from the case. • Place the Bone Graft Ratcheting T-handle (BG-8043) in a mesh basket that is compatible with the washer disinfector. • Thermal disinfection has been validated* for an A0 ≥ 3000 (at least 5 minutes at 90°C). * Washer-disinfector processing was validated for fully loaded trays with all parts placed appropriately, with recommended evaluations as listed in EN ISO 15883-1 and EN ISO 15883-2 using a STERIS Reliance® Genfore Washer-Disinfector and STERIS Prolystica 2X Enzymatic Detergent. PRE-STERILIZATION INSPECTION • Visually inspect all devices under normal lighting to ensure that cleaning was effective. Pay close attention to all challenging areas. - Re-process an instrument that is not clean. - Replace an instrument that cannot be cleaned. • Inspect the implants and instruments for surface damage, such as nicks, scratches, and cracks. Replace any device that is affected. • Assess the instruments for proper use. Operate all parts and connecting mechanisms. Give careful attention to drivers, drill bits and reamers, and instruments used for cutting or implant insertion. Critically assess them for wear, sharpness, straightness, and corrosion. Replace any instrument that does not perform as intended. • Inspect all cutting edges under magnification. - Replace an instrument if a cutting edge is dull, chipped, cracked, rolled, or otherwise deformed. - Running a cotton cloth over the edge may help detect chipping and cracking. • Verify the legibility of all markings and reference scales. Replace any device that is unreadable. • Repair, replace, and/or repeat the cleaning of instruments as needed to ensure proper operation before proceeding with sterilization.
