Scope

GB 16383-2014 is the English-translated version of 医疗卫生用品辐射灭菌消毒质量控制.

GB 16383 governs the sterilisation of medical and hygienic products by gamma or electron beam irradiation, a process whose defining difficulty is that the result cannot be inspected afterwards: the product looks identical whether the dose reached it or not. The standard therefore sets the quality control that stands in place of inspection. Clause 4 requires the product and its packaging to withstand the dose, the bioburden to be determined before irradiation, and the irradiation facility to hold a radiation safety licence and a radiation processing measurement permit under JJG 591, GB 18871 and GB 18280, with the sterilization dose established under GB 18280. Clause 5 covers the dosimetry: calibrated dosimeters, working dosimeters at fixed routine positions, a dose distribution map for every loading pattern, and a dose uniformity ratio Dmax/Dmin below 1.5. Clause 6 requires ten samples per batch for the initial bacterial contamination and ten biological indicators at the minimum dose position, tested for sterility against the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. Clause 7 governs release - including the case where the dose was right but part of the batch arrived with damaged packaging - and clause 8 the labelling, the certificate, the segregation of treated and untreated stock and the scrapping of anything whose seal has failed. Annex A, normative, gives the pour-plate and membrane-filtration methods for the bioburden count. Issued on 22 December 2014, in force since 1 July 2015, replacing GB 16383-1996. This page is published from the official record of the standard and from its published table of contents. The full clause text, the tables and the numeric limits are in the document itself, which is delivered complete in English translation.

Foreword

Chapter 6 of this standard are recommendatory, the rest are mandatory provisions. This standard was drafted in accordance with GB/T 1.1-2009 given rules. This standard replaces GB 16383-1996 "medical and health supplies radiation sterilization quality control standards." This standard and GB 16383-1996 comparison, major technical changes are as follows:

--- Standard name from "medical and health supplies radiation sterilization quality control standards" to "medical and health supplies radiation sterilization QC";

--- A reference to the standard version has been updated and added GB 18280, GB 18871, "People's Republic of China Pharmacopoeia (two)" (2010 edition);

--- According to GB 18280 terms and definitions on the part of the sterilization dose is determined, remove the medical supplies production plant production requirements;

--- Remove the sterilization and disinfection dose and sterility assurance level requirements;

--- Increases may affect product quality should take corrective and preventive actions;

--- The "microbiological monitoring methods and requirements" as an independent Chapter 6, "Radiation product release requirements" as Chapter 7. Proposed for The quality of our country demands. This standard is proposed and managed by the National Health and Family Planning Commission People's Republic of China. This standard by the Jiangsu Provincial Disease Prevention and Control Center is responsible for drafting, Suzhou Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention, Chinese Center for Disease Control parameters Plus draft.

This standard specifies the medical and health supplies radiation sterilization and disinfection of terms and definitions, radiation sterilization and disinfection requirements, the product of radiation treatment to Requirements, microbiological monitoring methods and requirements, requirements and release management requirements radiation after radiation products. This standard applies to all units to carry out radiation sterilization and disinfection.
