18.8.173.1 STZ Field Definitions (17.4.3.0)

18.8.173.2 STZ-1 Sterilization Type (CWE) 02213 (17.4.3.1)

Definition: This field contains the type of sterilization used for sterilizing the inventory supply item in the ITM segment. Refer to User-defined Table 0806 - Sterilization Type in Chapter 2C, Code Tables, for suggested values.

18.8.173.3 STZ-2 Sterilization Cycle (CWE) 02214 (17.4.3.2)

Definition: This field contains the sterilization cycle used for sterilization of the inventory supply item. The AAMI Standard defines steam sterilization cycles - cycle names: pressure, temperature, dry time. Refer to SCD-28 Cycle Type (CWE) 02131 which references User-defined Table 0702 - Cycle Type in Chapter 2C, Code Tables, providing suggested values.

18.8.173.4 STZ-3 Maintenance Cycle (CWE) 02215 (17.4.3.3)

Definition: This field contains the maintenance cycle used for the inventory supply item, such as the number of times to sharpen after five uses. Refer to User-defined Table 0809 - Maintenance Cycle in Chapter 2C, Code Tables, for suggested values.

18.8.173.5 STZ-4 Maintenance Type (CWE) 02216 (17.4.3.4)

Definition: This field contains the type of maintenance performed on the inventory supply item. This is different than the maintenance cycle in the sense that it can describe the number of maintenance cycles that can be performed before disposing of the inventory supply item. Refer to User-defined Table 0811 - Maintenance Type in Chapter 2C, Code Tables, for suggested values.
