    Dear Michael

    The new version of AS/NZS 4187 is due for Public Comment around October
    this year.
    Could I suggest that as Terry McAuley is the AICA representative on the
    committee she could be approached to provide some guidance in how the
    HE-023 Committee is approaching this issue.
    I hasten to add that she may not be able to comment publically at this
    stage.
    I have seen a committee draft which indicates that all steps (cleaning,
    disinfection, sterilization) in the reprocessing of any reusable medical
    device (RMD) must be validated. That is, all reusable instruments and
    equipment.

    Regards
