Decontamination - Arjohuntleigh Flowtron Excel Bedienungsanleitung

7. Decontamination

The following processes are recommended, but should be adapted to comply with
the local or national guidelines (Decontamination of Medical Devices) which may
apply within the Healthcare Facility or the country of use. If you are uncertain, you
should seek advice from your local Infection Control Specialist.
The Flowtron Excel pump should be routinely decontaminated between patients and
at regular intervals while in use, as is good practice for all reusable medical devices.
Remove the electrical supply to the pump by disconnecting the mains power
cable from the mains power supply before cleaning.
Protective clothing should always be worn when carrying out decontamination
procedures.
Do not use Phenol-based solutions or abrasive compounds or pads during the
decontamination process as these will damage the surface coating. Avoid
immersing electrical parts in water during the cleaning process. Do not spray
cleaning solutions directly onto the pump. Do not immerse the tubeset in
water.
To clean
Chemical Disinfection
Garments are single patient use and hence cannot be cleaned or reused.
WARNING
Caution
Clean all exposed surfaces and remove any organic
debris by wiping with a cloth moistened with a simple
(neutral) detergent and water.
Do not allow water or cleaning solutions to collect on the
surface of the pump.
We recommend a chlorine-releasing agent, such as
sodium hypochlorite, at a strength of 1,000ppm
available chlorine (this may vary from 250ppm to
10,000ppm depending on local policy and
contamination status).
Wipe all cleaned surfaces with the solution, then wipe
using a cloth moistened with water and dry thoroughly.
Alcohol based disinfectants (strength 70%) may be used
as an alternative.
Ensure the product is dry before storage.
If an alternative disinfectant is selected from the wide
variety available, we recommend that suitability for use
is confirmed with the chemical supplier prior to use.
