Issue
The IFUs for the devices identifiers previously included cleaning methods other than manual cleaning and pre-vacuum steam as the approved reprocessing modalities. The IFU was updated to only include these two methods moving forward; therefore, there is a risk that a reprocessing modality that is not currently cleared could be utilized for reprocessing these devices.
