Sumario:WHAT IS ALREADY KNOWN ON THIS TOPIC? Hydrogen peroxide sterilizeation is widely used for luminal devices. However, the low penetrability of the sterilant is of major concern. WHAT IS ADDED BY THIS REPORT? This report investigated the effective sterilization of low-temperature hydrogen peroxide gas plasma sterilizers and compared the applicability of different biological monitoring methods based on medical luminal devices. WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS FOR PUBLIC HEALTH PRACTICE? It is recommended to use a biological process challenge device for monitoring the sterilization of luminal devices with low-temperature hydrogen peroxide gas plasma sterilizers.
