  • What is the extraction process of plasticizers from PVC medical devices?
  • The extraction process of plasticizers from PVC medical devices is, however, the first stepin assessing their safety and their efficacy and for evaluating the risk of the patients being exposed to the MDs’ plasticized PVC. This assessment is
  • Are medical devices made of flexible plasticized polyvinylchloride (PVC)?
  • This study provides advices and directions on the routine use of the methods. A wide variety of medical devices (MDs) used in hospitals are made of flexible plasticized polyvinylchloride (PVC).
  • What is polyvinylchloride (PVC)?
  • Polyvinylchloride (PVC) is a common plastic material used in disposable medical devices (MDs) in hospitals.
  • Can plasticizers be quantified in medical devices?
  • For plasticizer quantification in MDs we chose to limit the sample quantity considering that the limit of quantification obtained on 10 mg was enough. Indeed we wanted to be able to analyze very small PVC samples from medical devices, so the less we used for extraction, the better. 3.4. Medical device tests
  • How many plasticizers are found in medical devices analyzed?
  • Distribution of the majority plasticizers in the 32 medical devices analyzed according to the type of MD. Moreover, in the MDs tested, trace levels of minority plasticizers are often found. Table 5 shows the quantities of the different plasticizers recovered from the MDs. Table 5. Plasticizer content of the 31 MDs analyzed.
  • Why do medical devices use plasticizers?
  • In medical devices, plasticizers are added as a percentage to provide a given durometer hardness to the PVC. Most of the plasticizers need to be added at higher concentrations than DEHP in order to achieve the same soft- ness .
