Cleaning and Disinfecting Instructions
1. Prepare enzymatic and cleaning agents at the use-dilution and
temperature recommended by the manufacturer. Fresh
solutions should be prepared when existing solutions become
grossly contaminated.
2. Place instruments in enzymatic solution until completely
submerged. Actuate all moveable parts to allow detergent to
contact all surfaces. Soak for a minimum of ten (10) minutes.
Use a nylon soft bristled brush to gently scrub instruments until
all visible debris is removed. Pay special attention to hard to
reach areas. Pay special attention to any cannulated
instruments and clean with an appropriate bottle brush. Note:
Use of a sonicator will aid in thorough cleaning of instruments.
Using a syringe or water jet will improve flushing of difficult to
reach areas and any closely mated surface.
3. Remove instruments from enzyme solution and rinse in
deionized water for a minimum of one (1) minute.
4. Place instruments in a suitable washer/ disinfector basket and
process through a standard washer/disinfector cycle. The
following minimum parameters are essential for thorough
cleaning and disinfection
.
Automated Cleaning/Disinfection Instructions
Automated washer/dryer systems are not recommended as the
only cleaning method for surgical instruments.
An automated system may be used as a follow up process to
manual cleaning.
Instruments should be thoroughly inspected prior to sterilization
to ensure effective cleaning.
