態にすることが望まれる。[Prior Art] When packaging hydrolyzable medical materials, if moisture gets into the packaging, it will deteriorate during storage, so it is necessary to package it in a moisture-free state and to prevent moisture from entering from outside during storage. It is necessary to make sure that there is no such thing. Furthermore, since it is necessary to take out the medical materials packaged in a sterile state from the bag during a surgery or the like, it is necessary to maintain the outside of the bag in a sterile state as well. Therefore, it is desirable that the stored items be placed in the inner bag of the double bag, and that the outside of the inner bag be kept completely sterile.

を使用していた。 Conventionally, as a countermeasure, for example,
A method for producing a sterile double package as shown in the above publication has been proposed. That is, medical materials are placed in an inner bag made of a laminated metal foil sheet,
This inner bag is placed in an outer bag made of a material that is gas permeable but impermeable to bacteria and laminated with a material that melts at a higher temperature than the inner bag, and only the outer bag is heat-sealed. After that, the entire outer bag is sterilized, the inner and outer surfaces of the inner bag are sterilized through the outer bag, the sterilization gas is removed under vacuum, and the inner and outer bags are dried.Finally, the inner bag is heat-sealed from the outside of the outer bag at a low temperature. Ta. By this method,
The package can be freely transported while the inner and outer surfaces of the inner bag remain sterilized. When using the package, open the outer bag, remove the inner bag with tweezers, carry it to the operating table, and remove the inner bag on the spot. Medical materials that had been opened and packaged were used.
[発明が解決しようとする課題]
しかしながら、上記のような従来のものにおい

ことは困難であり、シールミスが起こり易い欠点
があつた。その対策として高価な透明材料製の外
袋を用いる必要も生じる。[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, in the conventional products as described above, it is necessary to put the inner bag into the outer bag while the inner bag is open, and at that time, the inner bag or the stored items may be There was a risk of falling. In addition, since the inner bag is sealed after the outer bag is sealed, gas-permeable and bacteria-impermeable materials are usually made of opaque materials, and the sealing state of the inner bag is maintained through the outer bag. Since the opening of the inner bag cannot be seen, it is difficult to reliably seal the opening of the inner bag, and there is a drawback that sealing errors are likely to occur. As a countermeasure, it becomes necessary to use an outer bag made of an expensive transparent material.
また、内袋が開口しているので、外袋に入れた
後に行う外袋のシール、滅菌、真空乾燥等の各種
の作業中に収納物が内装からはみ出す恐れがあ
り、はみ出してしまうと、内袋のシールが完全に
行われないことは勿論、はみ出した収納物は外袋
を通して入つてくる水分によつて劣化し、使用不
能となる欠点があつた。それを防ぐためには、内
装から収納物がはみ出さないように細心の注意を
はらう必要があつた。 In addition, since the inner bag is open, there is a risk that the stored items may protrude from the inner bag during various operations such as sealing, sterilizing, and vacuum drying the outer bag after placing it in the outer bag. Of course, the bag was not completely sealed, and the protruding stored items deteriorated due to moisture entering through the outer bag, making them unusable. In order to prevent this, it was necessary to take great care to ensure that stored items did not protrude from the interior.
更に、滅菌ガスとして使用されるエチレンオキ
サイドガス或いはその混合ガスは、滅菌後、除去
されることが望まれるが、その際、内袋の口が外
袋に押されて閉じられるときには除去されにく
く、外袋の中の状態が見にくいこととあいまつ

性ガスとのガス交換を行わなければならない欠点
もあつた。同様に内袋の口が外袋に押されて閉じ
ている時には滅菌ガスが内袋内に入りにくく、安
全を見込んで長時間滅菌を行わなければならなか
つた。 Furthermore, it is desirable that the ethylene oxide gas or its mixed gas used as a sterilization gas be removed after sterilization, but in this case, it is difficult to remove when the opening of the inner bag is closed by being pressed against the outer bag. Coupled with the fact that it was difficult to see the condition inside the outer bag, it also had the disadvantage of requiring long periods of degassing or gas exchange with inert gas to ensure safety. Similarly, when the opening of the inner bag is closed by the outer bag, it is difficult for sterilizing gas to enter the inner bag, and sterilization must be carried out for a long time to ensure safety.
一方、上記従来のものは、最後に外袋の外から
内袋の口のみシールする必要があるので、内袋の
ラミネート材の熱溶融温度を外袋のそれより低い
温度にしなければならないので、内袋と外袋のヒ
ートシール温度に差を設ける必要があり、特別の
素材の組み合わせが必要となる欠点もあつた。 On the other hand, with the above conventional method, it is necessary to seal only the opening of the inner bag from the outside of the outer bag at the end, so the thermal melting temperature of the laminate material of the inner bag must be lower than that of the outer bag. It was necessary to provide a difference in heat-sealing temperature between the inner bag and the outer bag, and it also had the disadvantage of requiring a special combination of materials.

い。[Effects of the Invention] In the present invention, since the inner bag is sealed first as described above, the contents do not fall out during various operations such as inserting the inner bag into the outer bag unlike in the conventional case. It disappears. In particular, since the final seal is the seal on the outer bag, the status of the seal can be clearly seen, and sealing errors will not occur. Therefore, there is no need to use an expensive transparent material for the outer bag. In addition, since the inner bag is sealed, the stored items will not protrude from the inner bag during various operations, and there will be no seal failure or product failure due to protrusion as in the past.
更に、滅菌、ガス抜き、乾燥作業時において、
従来のように、開口していた内袋の口がつぶされ
て閉じられ、これらの作業に安全を見込んで多く
の時間をかけなければならないという欠点も解消
され、作業効率が向上する。しかも内袋を外袋に
入れる前に予め滅菌しておくことも可能となり、
その際には最終的な滅菌は二次滅菌となり、滅菌
効率が向上する。 Furthermore, during sterilization, degassing, and drying operations,
This eliminates the drawback that the opening of the inner bag is crushed and closed as in the past, which requires taking a lot of time to ensure safety, thereby improving work efficiency. Moreover, it is now possible to sterilize the inner bag before putting it into the outer bag.
In this case, the final sterilization is secondary sterilization, which improves sterilization efficiency.
しかも、最終的な外袋のシールは、内袋の存在
しない部分をシールするので、従来のような内袋

必要となり、内袋及び外袋共に同じヒートシール
性樹脂を用いることができるので安価となる。 Moreover, since the final seal of the outer bag seals the part where the inner bag does not exist, there is no need to select a material that fuses the inner bag at a lower temperature than the outer bag, which is the case in the past. Since the same heat-sealable resin can be used for both the outer bag and the outer bag, the cost is reduced.
また、外袋のガス透過性で細菌不透過性の部分
を切除する際には、製品が小型化し、取扱いの便
が良くなる。 Furthermore, when the gas-permeable but bacteria-impermeable portion of the outer bag is removed, the product becomes smaller and easier to handle.
以上のように本発明は、加水分解性医用材料を
包装するのに好適である。 As described above, the present invention is suitable for packaging hydrolyzable medical materials.
