Dear Ahmed

General factors that influence shelf life are event-related (not time-related) and include the following:

  • Packaging materials.
  • Storage and handling conditions.
  • Probability of product material deterioration.
  • Package design.

Please see details on our EFHSS Education page [15] Release and Storage of Medical Devices after Sterilization and the answers to the questions Q00110, Q00162, and Q00196.

Best regards
