Surgical Ultrasound Probes Compatible with All Sterrad Sterilization Systems

November 16, 2010 — Aloka Ultrasound announced its endorsement of Sterrad NX and 100NX systems from Advanced Sterilization Products (ASP) as compatible sterilization methods for all Aloka intraoperative transducers. The endorsement follows completion of rigorous sterilization validation and device functionality studies performed by ASP in accordance with recognized ANSI/AAMI/ISO standards and guidelines, as well as pertinent FDA requirements.

Aloka says it is the only ultrasound company with its intraoperative transducers listed on ASP’s Sterrad Sterility Guide (SSG) as compatible with all Sterrad systems. This means that healthcare facilities no longer need to differentiate between the various Sterrad systems for use with its products.
