## Indications for use
The STERIZONE® VP4 Sterilizer is intended for use in terminal sterilization of cleaned, rinsed, and dried metal and non- metal reusable medical devices in health care facilities. The single pre-set cycle of the STERIZONE® VP4 Sterilizer uses hydrogen peroxide and ozone. The injection of vaporized hydrogen peroxide is followed by the injection of ozone, which reacts with residual hydrogen peroxide to form hydroxyl radicals. Sterilization efficacy was demonstrated using a representative sample of one or more device types and packaging, in nine separate validation loads, as described in Table 1 [refer to continuation pages 2 - 4 of this form]. The load to be processed should be maintained between 20°C to 26°C (68°F to 78°F). Total load weight shall not exceed 75 lb, inclusive of the containers/packaging weight but excluding the 25 lb loading rack.
