Advanced Sterilization Products Recognized with Four Medical Device Network Excellence Awards

IRVINE, Calif. Advanced Sterilization Products (ASP)), a global leader in infection prevention solutions, has been honored with four prestigious 2024 Medical Device Network Excellence Awards. The accolades in the Innovation, Product Launch, Safety, and Environmental categories highlight the company’s commitment to advancing sterilization technology, healthcare safety, and sustainability.

ASP received the Innovation Award for its ULTRA GI™ Cycle for the STERRAD™ 100NX Sterilizer with ALLClear™ Technology, the first FDA-cleared hydrogen peroxide gas plasma sterilization method for duodenoscopes that have been cleared as compatible with vaporized hydrogen peroxide. The ULTRA GI Cycle is a groundbreaking contribution to improving patient safety. By shifting reprocessing from high-level disinfection to terminal sterilization, the ULTRA GI Cycle significantly enhances the margin of safety and sets a new standard in endoscope reprocessing for endoscopy procedures that have traditionally been noted for higher infection rates.

The Product Launch Award celebrates the company’s strategic collaboration with a leading device manufacturer and showcases the impact of industry partnerships in delivering innovative solutions. The partnership addresses a critical need in the healthcare industry for safer, more effective duodenoscope reprocessing.

With a strong dedication to environmental sustainability, ASP earned the Environmental Award for the STERRAD100NX Sterilizer with ALLClear Technology. This advanced system helps healthcare facilities reduce energy consumption and water usage, supporting environmentally conscious practices while offering operational efficiencies.
The Safety Award recognizes advancements in sterilization technologies, where ASP continues to prioritize patient safety and healthcare worker protection by minimizing contamination risks and exposure to harmful chemicals that can be associated with the sterilization process.

"We’re grateful to the Medical Device Network for recognizing ASP with these awards that celebrate our commitment to providing innovative sterilization solutions that protect patients, healthcare workers, and the environment,” said Chad Rohrer, President at ASP and Group President for Infection Prevention. “We are honored to be recognized for our commitment to infection prevention and the enormous benefits that the ULTRA GI Cycle offers for duodenoscope reprocessing.”
