Abstract: A sterilization process challenge device comprising a solid body comprised of walls which define a space, wherein the space can fully contain a sterilization indicator and a volume of gas of at least 5 cubic centimeters and not more than 1000 cubic centimeters; a flow restrictor associated with the solid body such that any flow of the gas out of the space and any flow of a sterilant into the space is restricted; wherein the sterilization indicator indicates whether or not it has been contacted by the sterilant for a time and at a temperature sufficient to sterilize an article; and wherein the walls of the solid body are impervious to the sterilant and have a thickness of at least 0.3 centimeter, methods of using the device and a kit including the device are disclosed.

Abstract: A device for cleaning access devices includes a body with a first opposing side, a second opposing side, and a closed end. The body defines a space for retaining a pad, such as an alcohol prep pad. The pad could contain an antiseptic, disinfectant, etc. The device could include a housing configured to engage an access device, such as a luer access device.

Abstract: A sterilization process challenge device comprising a first container comprising walls which define a first space within the first container; a process indicator within the first space; at least one sterilant access for a sterilant to enter the first space within the first container; wherein at least one of the walls which defines the first space is a flexible wall; and wherein the walls are impervious to the sterilant; a method of using the device; and a kit including the device are disclosed.
