HOLLOW FIBER BLOOD-PROCESSING DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PACKAGING AND STERILIZING SUCH DEVICES

摘要

The present invention is directed to a hollow fiber blood-processing device which comprises a bundle of hollow fibers and is sealed in a gas-impermeable container together with a deoxidizer of a water-releasing type and radiation sterilized. The blood processing device is produced by a method comprising the steps of sealing a hollow fiber blood-processing device in a gas-impermeable container together with a deoxidizer of a water-releasing type, and radiation sterilizing the blood-processing device held in the sealed gas-impermeable container.
