Relace the text by the following:
a) Limited exposure (A) – medical devices whose cumulative sum of single, multiple or repeated
duration of contact is up to 24 h.
b) Prolonged exposure (B) – medical devices whose cumulative sum of single, multiple or repeated
contact time is likely to exceed 24 h but not exceed 30 d.
c) Long-term exposure (C) – medical devices whose cumulative sum of single, multiple or repeated
contact time exceeds 30 d.
4.3.1, first paragraph
Replace the paragraph with the following:
The use of materials that can be sterilized by methods other than EO and the sterilization process
shall be considered during product design and development, so that EO sterilization shall be used
only when justified. Therefore, when EO is used for sterilization, elements leading to this choice shall
be documented. The allowable limits, presented below, shall be regarded as maximum allowable
amount on the device and an additional goal of the manufacturer applying this standard should be
to reduce the residues levels of EO sterilization by e.g. other method(s), improved process(es), other
material(s), design. As far as possible, given the generally recognized state of the art and given that
the risk-benefit ratio is not adversely affected.

The limits for permanent contact and prolonged exposure devices are expressed as maximum
average daily doses. These limits carry additional constraints for the first 24 h of the exposure
period and, in the case of the permanent contact devices, for the first 30 days, whichever extraction
method is used. These constraints place limitations on the amount of EO and ECH that can be
delivered to the patient during these early time periods.
4.3.1, fourth paragraph
Replace the paragraph with the following:
If data are available, consideration should be given for proportioning the limits downward if
multiple devices with the residue of concern are used at one time, or proportioning the limits
upward when device use is only for a part of the exposure period of concern. These concomitant
exposure factors (CEF) and proportional exposure factors (PEF) are given in ISO 10993-17. A
default value of 0,2 for CEF have been given for 5 medical devices used and contributing to the
patient residues daily exposure. When the device risk analysis shows that more than five medical
devices sterilized by EO can contribute to the total daily exposure, then the allowable limits shall
be adjusted accordingly.
4.3.2, first paragraph
Replace the paragraph with the following:
In the case of a device used in an adult of body mass = 70 kg, and with CEF = 0,2 and PEF = 1,0
mb
(default factors), the average daily dose of EO to patient shall not exceed 0,1 mg/d. In addition, the
maximum EO dose shall not exceed:
4.3.2, last paragraph
Replace the paragraph with the following:
When the risk analysis indicates that the device may be used in special populations, the appropriate
patient body mass shall be used for the derivation of the allowable limits. For example, if the device
is intended to be used in premature neonates, neonates or children, the allowable limits shall be
derived using the abovementioned limits and diminished by the pro rata of the appropriate body
mass. The appropriate default body mass used for each category of special patient population
should be justified and documented.
4.3.3, first paragraph
Replace the paragraph with the following:
In the case of a device used in an adult of body mass = 70 kg, and with CEF = 0,2 and PEF = 1,0
