Webinar Overview:
Water quality plays a pivotal role in sterile processing, yet many facilities still struggle with systems that fall short of compliance with ANSI/AAMI ST108:2023. In this educational session, attendees will explore the essential components of a compliant Critical Water purification system—including pre-treatment, reverse osmosis, and deionization—and learn how system design choices can impact performance, biofilm risk, and patient safety. Real-world case studies will illustrate common failures, best practices, and what to avoid when evaluating your own water systems. A must-attend for sterile processing professionals, engineers, and infection prevention leaders seeking to understand and improve their facility’s water quality infrastructure.
