Reason/Issue Stryker has become aware that Gravity sterilisation parameters provided in the 12 Instrument Sterilisation reprocessing guide (1000400920 Rev D) did not fully consider all worst-case scenarios during validation testing. Although, to date there have been no reported events to Stryker of infection as a result of the use of the sterilization parameters previously provided with these trays, there is a remote possibility for infection.
