Abstract

LA INVENCION SE REFIERE A NUEVOS APARATOS Y METODOS PARA INSERTAR E INTRODUCIR UN MATERIAL EN EL INTERIOR DE UN RECIPIENTE Y PARA UTILIZAR DICHO RECIPIENTE PARA DETECTAR UN PARAMETRO AMBIENTAL O UNA COMBINACION DE PARAMETROS ESPECIFICA Y PARA DETERMINAR LA EFECTIVIDAD DE UN PROCEDIMIENTO DE ESTERILIZACION. LA LOCALIZACION PRECISA DE UN TAPON DE MATERIAL COMPRIMIBLE EN UN RECIPIENTE PROPORCIONA FLEXIBILIDAD PARA LA PRODUCCION DE SISTEMAS INDICADORES QUE VARIAN EN SU RESPUESTA FRENTE A CONDICIONES DE ESTERILIZACION. DICHOS INDICADORES REFLEJAN LA EFICACIA DE LOS ESTERILIZADORES BASADOS EN DIFERENTES MODOS DE ESTERILIZACION Y REPRODUCIBILIDAD PARA UNA MONITORIZACION PRECISA DE CADA MODO. LA INVENCION SE REFIERE ASIMISMO A INDICADORES DE ENSAYO QUE CONTIENEN VOLUMENES CONTROLADOS DE MATERIALES PERMEABLES A GAS, COMPRIMIDOS Y A METODOS DE UTILIZACION DE DICHOS INDICADORES PARA DETERMINAR LA EFICACIA DE DISTINTOS TIPOS DE PROCEDIMIENTOS DE ESTERILIZACION. EL INDICADOR DE ENSAYO CONSISTE EN UNA PLURALIDAD DE ENZIMAS INTERACTIVAS EN UN RECIPIENTE CON AL MENOS UNA ABERTURA. DICHA APERTURA SE RELLENA CON UN INSERTO CILINDRICO DE ESPUMA COMPRIMIDO Y EL INDICADOR DE ENSAYO SE INTRODUCE EN LA CAMARA DE ESTERILIZACION. EL INSERTO DE ESPUMA REGULA LA CANTIDAD DE ESTERILIZANTE, COMO VAPOR, GAS, SUSTANCIAS QUIMICAS O PLASMA, QUE SE INTRODUCE EN EL INDICADOR DE ENSAYO. TRAS UNA ESTERILIZACION ADECUADA, EL ESTERILIZANTE DESTRUYE LAS ENZIMAS INTERACTIVAS Y NO SE FORMA PRODUCTO COLOREADO. LA INACTIVACION DEL SISTEMA ENZIMATICO SE PRODUCE PARALELAMENTE A LA INACTIVACION DE ESPORAS BACTERIANAS SOMETIDAS AL PROCEDIMIENTO DE ESTERILIZACION. LOS RESULTADOS ESTAN DISPONIBLES EN UN TIEMPO COMPRENDIDO ENTRE ALGUNOS SEGUNDOS Y ALGUNAS HORAS. EL INDICADOR DE ENSAYO SE PUEDE SITUAR ASIMISMO EN EL INTERIOR DE UN RECIPIENTE CON MATERIAL, DE FORMA QUE EL DISEÑO SIMULA UN ENSAYO DE UN PARAMETRO AMBIENTAL DEL PROCEDIMIENTO DE ESTERILIZACION.
