Hello!

The only source for this kind of information is the manufacturer of the implant. If the implant is intended for reuse (?) or reproccesing he has to give clear instructions.

Kind regards

P.S.: Sometimes the question to the surgeon: "Would you like to have this reprocessed device implanted on yourself (... your wife, ...)?" helps wonders. ;-)
