This is the second edition of CAN/CSA-ISO 17664, Processing of health care products â Information to be provided by the medical device manufacturer for the processing of medical devices, which is an adoption without modification of the identically titled ISO (International Organization for Standardization) Standard 17664 (second edition, 2017-10). It supersedes the previous edition published in 2006 as CAN/CSA-Z17664, Sterilization of medical devices â Information to be provided by the manufacturer for the processing of resterilizable medical devices (adopted ISO 17664:2004).
For brevity, this Standard will be referred to as âCAN/CSA-ISO 17664â throughout.
This Standard was reviewed for Canadian adoption by the SCC Mirror Committee to ISO/TC 198, under the jurisdiction of the CSA Technical Committee on Medical Device Reprocessing and the CSA Strategic Steering Committee on Health Care Technology & Systems, and has been formally approved by the Technical Committee.
This Standard has been developed in compliance with Standards Council of Canada requirements for National Standards of Canada. It has been published as a National Standard of Canada by CSA Group.
