More Information
Summary:A sterilisation device for sterilising a section of a catheter tube includes a casing including a proximal end, a distal end, an attachment portion, a sterilisation chamber, and a through hole extending through the attachment portion and the sterilisation chamber, the through hole having a distal opening positioned at the distal end of the casing and leading into the sterilisation chamber, the attachment portion being configured to retain a section of a catheter tube in the through hole; and at least one light source configured to emit germicidal light into the sterilisation chamber of the casing. A diameter of the distal opening of the through hole is greater than a diameter of the through hole at the attachment portion, so that when the catheter tube is retained in the through hole, an air gap is formed between the sterilisation chamber at the distal opening and the catheter tube.
