SUMMARY:Validating Radiation Sterilization for Medical Products 2017
DESCRIPTION:Course \"Validating Radiation Sterilization for Medical Pr
 oducts\" has been pre-approved by RAPS as eligible for up to 12 credit
 s towards a participant's RAC recertification upon full completion.\nO
 verview:\nReview of basic polymer chemistry and changes in polymer cha
 racteristics can be anticipated and designed for. Learn how to plan fo
 r post radiation resistance and lifetime functionality. All radiation 
 modalities (gamma, e-beam, x-ray) will be reviewed for a basic underst
 anding of the sterilization process and the influences that product de
 sign and assembly can have on success.\nThe following subjects will be
  covered in detail:\n\nMaterials Guidances - AAMI TIR # 17, ASTM\nSter
 ilization validation and Bioburden\nShelf Life Test Methods - Accelera
 ted Aging design\nTest Design\nProduct Design\nThe influences of produ
 ct assembly (molding, automation, etc.)'\nMaterial selection and post 
 irradiation degradation\nRegulatory Guidances - AAMI/ISO 11137, TIR #1
 7\nPackaging Design and Materials\nBiological Polymers - Tissue, Serum
 \n\nWhy should you attend?\n\"Do it right the first time\", choose the
  most functional and radiation resistant materials for your medical de
 vice instead of going through the post launch cycle of product revisio
 ns. Also learn the basis for choosing the optimum sterilization modali
 ty based on materials, product design, bioburden, and logistics.\nLear
 n how to \"think like a molecule\" and plan and design around radiatio
 n induced changes in materials qualities (color, odor, brittleness). H
 ow to avoid the materials that are \"APT\" to fail.\n \n \n\nLocatio
