Sterilization of 3D Printed Parts Used as Medical Devices in the COVID-19 Pandemic
2021
Global outpouring of support for hospitals and other healthcare facilities has resulted in community volunteers donating thousands of pieces of equipment to support healthcare providers and patients alike. This volunteerism has the maximum positive impact with safe application of such equipment, strategic equipment distribution, and preparation for use. Sterilization of equipment is important for first use and for reuse. While local variations in sterilization procedures exist, this chapter outlines the general approach to 3D printed equipment disinfection with regards to the intended use, material components, and reuse potential.
