Sterile Cleanroom Design: Non-Hazardous Drug Compounding


 

Please note that this is the on-demand version of the webinar.


This webinar outlines the structural, functional, and operational design parameters for a sterile non-hazardous drug compounding cleanroom as required by USP General Chapter <797> (proposed). Cleanroom design illustrations for garbing, pre-sterilization, and sterile processing areas/rooms facilitate rapid learning for the participant. The webinar addresses Primary and Secondary Engineering Control parameters. It then details the placement of technology and equipment in all areas of the cleanroom environment, which includes the placement of primary engineering controls for chemical weighing and aseptic processing, the donning and doffing of personal protective equipment, storage, inspection, labeling, emergency preparedness, and waste management. This webinar features the one, two, and three room configurations for sterile non-hazardous drug compounding.
