## Indications for use
The PRO-LITE™ Sterilization Trays are used to contain medical devices for sterilization in the following cycles: Lumen, Non Lumen, Flexible, Fast Non Lumen and Fast Cycles of the V-PRO® Low Temperature Sterilization Systems Prior to placing in the Sterilizer, the trays must either be: • wrapped with a legally marketed sterilization wrap for use in the Sterilizers listed above or • placed inside a legally marketed pouch for enclosing trays in the Sterilizers listed above The PRO-LITE Sterilization Trays are not intended to maintain sterility; they are intended to be used in conjunction with a validated, FDA-cleared sterilization wrap or pouch in order to maintain sterility of the enclosed medical instruments. Intended Sterilization Cycles and Intended Tray Load for Tray Models: VP0045, VP0046, VP0047, VP0048, VP0049, VP0050, VP0050, VP0051, VP0052 V-PRO 60 & s2 Lumen Cycle • Instruments with diffusion-restricted spaces such as the hinged portion of forceps and scissors • Non-lumened devices including non-lumened rigid and semi-rigid endoscopes • Medical devices, including single, dual and triple channeled rigid and semi-rigid endoscopes, with the following configurations: • single or dual lumen devices • ≥ 0.77 mm internal diameter (ID) and ≤ 410 mm in length • triple lumen devices • ≥ 1.2 mm ID and ≤ 275 mm in length • ≥ 1.8 mm ID and ≤ 310 mm in length or • ≥ 2.8 mm ID and ≤ 317 mm in length V-PRO 60 & s2 Non Lumen Cycle Non-lumened devices including non-lumened rigid, semi-rigid and flexible endoscopes and non-lumened devices with diffusion-restricted spaces such as the hinged portion of forceps and scissors. V-PRO 60 & s2 Flexible Cycle Load 1: One flexible surgical endoscope or bronchoscope with a light cord (if not integral to endoscope) and mat without any additional load. The flexible endoscope may be a: • single or dual lumen device with lumens that are ≥ 1 mm ID and ≤ 990 mm in length Load 2: Non-lumened devices including non-lumened rigid, semi-rigid, and flexible endoscopes and non-lumened devices with diffusion-restricted areas such as the hinged portion of forceps or scissors. Medical devices, including rigid and semi-rigid endoscopes, with the following dimensions: • ≥ 2 mm ID and ≤ 400 mm in length • ≥ 0.76 mm ID and ≤ 233 mm in length • ≥ 1.0 mm ID and ≤ 254 mm in length Intended Sterilization Cycles and Intended Tray Load for Tray Models: VP0045, VP0046, VP0047, VP0048, VP0049 V-PRO s2 Fast Cycle • Non-lumened devices including non-lumened rigid, semi-rigid and flexible endoscopes, and non-lumened devices with diffusion-restricted areas such as the hinged portion of forceps or scissors. • Medical devices (including single, dual and triple channeled rigid and semi-rigid endoscopes) with the following configurations: • Single or dual channeled devices with stainless steel lumens that are ≥ 0.77 mm ID and ≤ 410 mm in length • Triple channeled devices with stainless steel lumens that are either: • ≥ 1.2 mm ID and ≤ 275 mm in length • ≥ 1.8 mm ID and ≤ 310 mm in length or • ≥ 2.8 mm ID and ≤ 317 mm in length Intended Sterilization Cycles and Intended Tray Load for Tray Models: VP0045, VP0046, VP0047, VP0048, VP0049, VP0050, VP0050, VP0051, VP0052, VP0053 V-PRO 1, 1 Plus, maX & maX 2 Lumen Cycle • Instruments with diffusion-restricted spaces such as the hinged portion of forceps and scissors • Non-lumened devices including non-lumened rigid and semi-rigid endoscopes • Medical devices, including single, dual and triple channeled rigid and semi-rigid endoscopes, with the following configurations: • single or dual lumen devices • ≥ 0.77 mm internal diameter (ID) and ≤ 410 mm in length • triple lumen devices • ≥ 1.2 mm ID and ≤ 275 mm in length • ≥ 1.8 mm ID and ≤ 310 mm in length or • ≥ 2.8 mm ID and ≤ 317 mm in length V-PRO 1, 1 Plus, maX & maX 2 Non Lumen Cycle Non-lumened devices including non-lumened rigid, semi-rigid and flexible endoscopes and non-lumened devices with stainless steel or titanium diffusion-restricted spaces such as the hinged portion of forceps and scissors V-PRO 1, 1 Plus, maX & maX 2 Flexible Cycle Load 1: Single or dual lumen surgical flexible endoscopes (such as those used in ENT, Urology and Surgical Care) and bronchoscopes with a light cord (if not integral to endoscope) and mat with no additional load. The flexible endoscopes may contain either: • a single lumen that is ≥ 1 mm ID and ≤ 1050 mm in length • or two lumens with: • one lumen that is ≥ 1 mm ID and < 990 mm in length • and the other lumen that is ≥ 1 mm ID and ≤ 850 mm in length Load 2: Non-lumened devices including non-lumened rigid, semi-rigid, and flexible endoscopes and non-lumened devices with diffusion-restricted areas such as the hinged portion of forceps or scissors.
