Getinge Assured Load Release
Getinge Assured Load Release
The Load Release products provide you the assurance that the correct conditions required for effective sterilization have been achieved in the chamber.
Overblik
By utilizing a process challenge device (PCD) in your sterilizer – such as our Helix tests, biological indicators and test packs – you can rest assured that the conditions required for proper sterilization of the most difficult instruments and sets are being achieved, providing a snapshot of the conditions inside the sterilizer prior to releasing the load.
