Joan Webster1, Wendy Lloyd, Ping Ho, Christine Burridge, Narelle George.   

Abstract

A prospective study was conducted during a 2-year period to evaluate the effectiveness of event-related outdating. Hospital-prepared sterilized items (n = 152) were shelved in wards and every 3 months, several articles were retrieved and microbiologically tested. During the 2-year period, all of the items tested were sterile.
