Supply Chain Management

Pall Medical subscribes to the principles of Lean Manufacturing. By incorporating these fundamentals,
we look through the entire supply process, from our raw component suppliers to our end customers,
with the determination to identify and eliminate non-value added activities and reduce costs.
Areas within the supply chain where we focus our energy are quality at the source and continuous
supply replenishment.
In the area of quality Pall Medical has a vision of delivering quality to our customers within the
expectations of six-sigma. In order to succeed, we must drive the same expectation to our
component suppliers. We accomplish this through supply agreements that include defined quality
requirements, working with our suppliers quality departments to explain our needs, and monitoring
our raw component designs to aggressively look for ways to improve consistency in the manufacturing of our component parts.
To ensure timeliness of delivery, we implement continuous supply programs, such as visual Kanban
pull systems. These continuous supply systems utilize standard shipping quantities (where applicable).
With the establishment of continuous supply programs, we have been very successful in reducing
our supplier lead-times, with resulting benefits to our end customers.
By allowing Pall Medical to work with you as we do our suppliers, we believe we can help you
achieve your business objectives. In concert with you and our suppliers, we can create a supply
chain that cannot be broken.

Basic Filtration Concepts

Filtration is a dynamic science of growing information,
distinctive terminology and proprietary knowledge. Selection
of appropriate filter media is critical to achieve specific
goals within your application. These basic filtration concepts
have been compiled to establish a common ground from
which we can work to determine your needs.
Hydrophobicity
Air and Liquid Filtration Differences
Hydrophobic filters lack an affinity for, or repel, water. A hydrophobic filter

will not wet in water, but will wet in low surface-tension liquids, such as
organic solvents. Hydrophobic filters are best suited for gas filtration and
venting (Example: Pall Medicals PTFE membrane).
To measure retention efficiency of hydrophobic membranes (depth or

membrane media), the media is typically exposed to aerosolized particles
of a standard size. The DOP test method is a standardized test to measure
this retention efficiency. By definition, this is the measure of the efficiency
of a filter for the production of ultrapure air based on the concentration of
0.3 m Dioctylphthalate aerosol particles that penetrate a filter at a
predetermined flow. It is usually expressed as a percentage of retention.
Flow Rate and Throughput

are two important related
measures of filter media and
device performance. This
performance is affected by
many different variables. The
most important variables are described below.
Differential Pressure (psid) is the difference between inlet and outlet
pressure. As the filter becomes laden, differential pressure increases.
Porosity is the measure of all of the open spaces (pores) in the
membrane. Generally, membranes are 50 to 90% open space. Flow rate
is directly proportional to the porosity of the membrane (more pores =
higher flow rate).
Effective Filter Area (EFA): Filter devices are available in a wide range
of sizes with different Effective Filtration Areas (EFA). EFA is the filter area
that is available for filtration. Given a solution, a larger filter area allows
faster flow rates at a given differential pressure and larger expected filter
throughput volumes prior to filter loading.
One of the most common misconceptions about air filtration is that an

efficient sterilizing grade hydrophobic filter must have a rating of 0.2 m.
This is not true because a 1.2 m pore size membrane has a 99.98%
efficiency when challenged with a 0.3 m DOP aerosolized particle. Due
to the nature of gas filtration through microporous membrane media,
particles smaller than the pore size, usually on the order of 10 1, are
retained. Therefore membranes even as high as 3 m can provide a
sterile air barrier for equipment and instruments.
In aerosol retention, there are five mechanism by which an aerosol particle
can be deposited on a filter media. These mechanisms are interception,
inertial impaction, diffusion, gravitational settling and electrostatic attraction.
Interception and inertial impaction have the greatest impact on aerosol
retention because adsorptive mechanisms are much more powerful in air
filtration than they are with corresponding cases in liquid filtration. Because
of the difference in the properties of gases and liquids (e.g., the density of
air is about 1000 times lower than liquid) filtering particles from air is not
as difficult. In fact, relatively large pore size filters should efficiently remove
small particles from air.
If you have any questions about these concepts or specific questions about
your application, please call us at 734.913.6124 or 888.676.7255.

Can Surgery Be Made Safer?
Entry of Abdominal Fluids into Laparoscopic Insufflators
Medical Design News, May/June 2002.

Within the last few years minimally invasive surgery, specifically
laparoscopy which deals with the abdomen, has become a replacement
for many open procedures. Advances in filters and membranes make
laparoscopy more accurate.
ECRI Problem Reporting System 21 (5): 180-181 (1992).

Member hospital recently reported an incident in which blood was
delivered from inside a laparoscopic insufflator to a patient. Using a
filter prevents the backflow of abdominal fluids and precludes passage
of almost all micro-organisms. Use a hydrophobic filter between the
insufflator and the patient.
Surgical Smoke
Operating room personnel have been exposed to surgical smoke and
aerosol for years without fully understanding whether they contain
hazardous particles. Not until the introduction and acceptance of laser
surgery technology in the early 1980s did the constituents of surgical
smoke come under scrutiny. The research to date has focused on four
potential health risks to operating room personnel and patients: hazardous
chemicals, viable viruses, viable cells, and nonviable particles.
Aerosol Challenge Summary for the Evaluation of Microbial

and Viral Retention Characterizes of Membrane Filters
This test is based on Pall Corporation SLS test methodology
(document # MB04), and is designed so that a concentration of bacteria
(Brevundimonas diminuta) or viruses (Bacteriophage MS-2), in aerosol
form, is passed through a filter device, after which effluent downstream
of the filter device is collected. Aerosol bacterial and viral retention levels
and removal efficiencies are then calculated through comparisons of
input and effluent concentrations of said microorganisms.
Hysteroscopic and Laparoscopic Insufflators

Food and Drug Administration (1995).
Submission Guidance for a 510(k).
For gas hysteroscopic insufflators, use of a hydrophobic filter between
the patient and the insufflator to prevent patient cross-contamination is
highly recommended.

High flow insufflators are electronically equipped to monitor,
maintain and control a constant intra-abdominal pressure
between 12 and 18 mm Hg. The inflow tubing is connected to
the insufflator port of the machine and to a V connector that is
attached to two different trocar insufflation ports for better
and faster insufflation.
