Why Reliable Monitoring of ST108 Indicators Is Vital
ST108 outlines rigorous standards for water quality and instrument reprocessing processes to ensure patient safety and instrument integrity. Monitoring key indicators—including water purity, microbial contamination, endotoxins, and chemical residues—is essential to:- Detect potential failures in sterilization water systems before they impact instruments
- Maintain instrument functionality by preventing spotting, staining, and corrosion
- Comply with regulatory and accreditation requirements
- Reduce infection risks associated with improperly processed surgical instruments
- Provide documented evidence supporting quality assurance and audit readiness
