Definitions
- ABSTRACT Method of sterile packaging of a surgical device coinprising heat forming a sheet of Teflon FEP to form a blister having. shape and dimensions of the device, placing the device in the blister, covering it with a second sheet of Teflon FEP, heat sealing the edges of the package and dry heat sterilizing the packaged device.
- This invention relates to the packaging of surgical devices, and more particularly relates to methods of packaging such devices to maintain the devices sterile until used.
- a method of sterile packaging in which sterilization is accomplished in the final package and the package remains sealed, thereby retaining sterility, until the package is opened for use.
- Teflon FEP fluorocarbon film a copolymer of tetrafluoroethylene and hexafluoropropylene, is used to form a blister package which is heat sealed around its edges after placement of the device to be packaged into the blister.
- the closed package is then subjected to heat at a minimum of about 250 F. and a maximum of about other objects and advantages thereof will become'apparent to those skilled in the art from a consideration of the following detailed description when read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings wherein:
- FIG. 1 is. a topview showing a mammary prosthesis packaged in accordance with the present invention.
- FIG. 2 is a s ideview partially in cross-section of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1.
- the prosthesis 11 is a surgically implantable body of silicone gel enclosed in a silicone rubber envelope having tissue ingrowth means 12 such as open mesh fabric or felt affixed to the rear portion thereof.
- the prosthesis 11 is packaged in a blister package comprising a first sheet 13 of Teflon FEP having a cavity formed therein approximating the exterior dimensions of the prosthesis 1 l and a second sheet 14 of Teflon FEP which forms the closure of the cavity in the first sheet 13.
- the two sheets are bonded together and sealed by a heat seal 15 around the entire periphery of the package.
- Teflon FEP is a copolymer of tetrafluoroethylene and hexafluoroethylene available from E.I. Du Pont De Nemours & Co., Wilmington, Delaware. The material has a melting point of 500-535 F., a tensile strength of about 3,000 p.s.i., tensile elongation of about 300 percent, and tensile modulus of about 70,000 p.s.i. Other physical and thermal properties are described in Du Pont Technical Information Bulletin T-2B concerning Du Pont Teflon FEP Fluorocarbon Film and chemical propertiesare described in a similarly identified publication number T-3B.
- the cavity for the prosthesis I1 is preferably formed in a sheet of Teflon FEP fluorocarbon film which is of 10 mil thickness.
- the cavity is preferably formed by vacuum forming techniques using'a mold preheated between 200 F. and 300 F. and heating the film to 475 to 490 F. before vacuum drawing into the female mold. Pressure thermoforming techniques can also be used to mold the cavity.
- the prosthesis 1 l is placed in the cavity and the second sheet 14 is placed over the cavity opening.
- the second sheet is preferably a sheet of Teflon FEP fluorocarbon film which is of 5 mil thickness.
- the two sheets 13 and 14 are then fused together around their periphery by means of a heated bar or other known heat sealing means to completely seal the prosthesis in the cavity.
- the heat scaling is accomplished by heating the material to its melting point while the two sheets are held in contact.
- the hot bar in .the preferred embodiment is of inch width and is heated to approximately 625 F.
- the necessary dwell time is shortened by placing the heated baragainst the thinner sheet, or alternatively, double heated bars can be used to further shorten the necessary dwell time.
- the package After the package has been sealed it is placed in an oven heated to at least 250? F. and not greater than about 490 F. (because melting of the package can occur) for sufficient time to sterilize the package contents. Since necessary time is dependent upon the thickness of the package, the volume of the blister, and the termal conductivity and reflectivity of the surgical device contained therein, no specific limits can be placed on sterilization time. However, for the mammary prosthesis described herein the present preferred sterilization cycle is maintenance of temperature be tween 280 F. and 290 F. for 5 hours. Dry heat is preferred to steam for ease in handling, although steam can also be used.
- the Teflon FEP is an effective sterilization barrier.
- the specific method described above should be considered as illustrative only, and it should be realized that the mammary prosthesis was chosen only as an example of surgical devices which can be packaged in the manner described.
- One variation of the method described which is useful in further minimizing contamination after the package has finally been opened for use is the wrapping of the device to be packaged in a thin sheet of material which is thermally stable at the sterilization temperatures to be used, before the device is placed in the cavity of the sheet 13.
- the thin sheet can be, for example, a further sheet of Teflon FEP fluorocarbon film having 0.5 mil thickness, which drapes easily to conform to the shape of the device being packaged.
- the thin sheet becomes sterile with the device and allows handling of the device in order to remove it from the package without touching the device itself.
- a method of sterile packaging of medical devices which comprises in sequence:
