Reason
STERIS has become aware that the V-PRO 60 software verifies expiration date of the Vaprox Sterilant upon completion of the sterilization cycle rather than prior to cycle initiation. Verification of the Vaprox expiration date at the end of the sterilization cycle will allow for the completion of one cycle with expired Vaprox Sterilant.
