CALL FOR ABSTRACTS
SCHEDULE OF EVENTS
It is our honor and pleasure to invite you to attend the 18th World Congress for
Sterilization in German city of Bonn in October 2017.

• Checking and packaging
•Sterilization
• Logistics / flows management
• Quality and risk management
• Process validation
• Human resource management
• Other subjects
SCHEDULE OF EVENTS
From October 4th to 7th in the World Conference Center in Bonn we all have the
opportunity to share experiences and knowledge about the reprocessing of Medical Devices.
It is a long time ago that Germany was the host of an international congress for
sterilization sciences. Back in the year 2000 the first WFHSS conference, at that
time EFHSS (European Federation for Hospital Sterile Supply) meeting, took place
in Potsdam near Berlin. 18 years ago everything took place on a much smaller
scale and it is amazing how much happened since then.
Not only the federation has grown to a “World Federation” level, also the yearly
conferences have gained in size and importance over the past years.
We have chosen Bonn to be the venue for the congress, because Bonn is situated
close to three international Airports (Frankfurt, Düsseldorf and Cologne/Bonn)
and offers a brand-new World Conference Center with a lot of space for participants, presentations and the supporting industrial exhibition.
Our foremost motivation is to show everyone the outstanding development in
sterilization sciences over the past years and to strengthen the role of medical
device reprocessing in health care. The scientific board will carefully choose the
lectures to offer every participant a very high educational value during the conference. Be assured that the scientific program will contain a widespread mix of
topics about reprocessing of medical devices.
The 18th World Sterilization Congress in 2017 will be definitely a reason not only
to experience and enjoy the scientific program but also a reason to celebrate this
18th birthday of the Federation and the 18th international congress taking place
across the world. Furthermore, also in 2017 the German Society of Sterile Supply
(DGSV) will celebrate its 21th birthday, so we will celebrate a huge party in Bonn.
