| Definition |
An ultraviolet light-based microbial reduction device for luer-activated valves is a device that uses ultraviolet light to irradiate luer-activated valves (e.g., as used for intravascular administration). The device is intended to supplement the manual, physical microbicidal treatment of luer-activated valves by providing limited microbial reduction, and is not intended to disinfect or replace manual microbicidal treatment. |
