When responding to customer inquiries, it is crucial to first clarify the sterilization method required for the end application, as this directly impacts the selection and validation of cable jacketing materials. Currently, there are four mainstream sterilization methods used in the medical cable industry:
1.Ethylene Oxide (EO) Sterilization
2.Autoclaving (Steam Sterilization under high temperature and pressure)
3.Irradiation Sterilization
4.Chemical Sterilization/Disinfection
Furthermore, gaining a thorough understanding of the customer's actual usage scenario—such as sterilization frequency, environmental conditions, and device type—is a key prerequisite for successful cable design and development. Only by fully integrating sterilization requirements with usage scenarios can we ensure appropriate material selection, reliable design, and ultimately meet clinical application needs.
