Abrégé

An antimicrobial solution for a medical device having a chamber defined by a wall, the chamber being configured to be includes water, and an amount of iodine in the water sufficient to generate free elemental iodine when introduced into the chamber of the medical device. The free elemental iodine is configured to diffuse through the wall of the chamber and/or be embedded in the wall of the chamber of the medical device to form an antimicrobial polymer on the wall of the chamber.

Abrégé

A method and system for sterilizing an iodine antiseptic solution is disclosed. The iodine antiseptic solution can comprise iodine crystals and/or povidone-iodine (PVP-I). The method includes providing the iodine antiseptic solution to a closed container. And during a sterilization cycle, the method further includes heating the iodine antiseptic solution in the closed container to a sterilization temperature sufficient to generate free elemental iodine in the closed container. The method further includes applying a positive pressure in the closed container to pressurize the free elemental iodine to produce sterilized iodine within the closed container.
