Reprocessing
restrictions
Long waiting times before reprocessing are to be avoided because of the risk of drying and corrosion. The period of time
between use and preparation of the instruments should not exceed 2 hours.
Frequent reprocessing has little effect on the instruments. The end of product life is usually determined by wear and tear
and damage through use. The product lifespan of the individual products is listed below:
250 Sterilization cycles:
Handle, gear unit, protective tubes, obturators, Myoma drill, sealing adapter, small sealing unit,
large sealing unit, treaded spray adapter, electronic motor
500 Sterilization cycles:
Trocar sleeve
For the handle, protective tubes, obturators, myoma drill, sealing adapter, small sealing units, large sealing units, spray
adapters with thread and cutting tubes, normal wear and tear determines the service life.
The service life of the roof seal, membrane seals, plug-in spray adapter supplied with the spray can for the NouvaOil spray
depends on use, handling and the condition of the material.
General handling
1. Mentioned instruments must be thoroughly cleaned, disinfected and sterilized before they are used for the first
time (brand new products) and immediately after each use. Only cleaned and disinfected instruments enable correct
sterilization!
2. The instruments must always be handled with the utmost care during transport, cleaning, care, sterilization and
storage.
3. We recommend the use of mildly alkaline and enzymatic cleaners with the lowest possible amount of silicate in order
to avoid staining (silicate formation) on the instruments.
4. Only commercially available, DGHM / VAH-listed agents may be used for cleaning and disinfection. The method of
use, exposure time and suitability of disinfecting and cleaning substances can be found in the information provided by
the manufacturers of these agents.
5. The operating instructions for the devices and chemicals, etc. used in the reprocessing must be strictly observed.
6. The dosage of chemicals, exposure times and exposure temperatures during cleaning and disinfection must be strictly
observed.
7. In the event of excessive wear and tear and damage through use, the end of the product life may be reached before the
above-mentioned sterilization cycles.
8. Do not overload cleaning and disinfection device (RDG). Avoid rinsing shadows. Ensure safe storage in the machine.
9. Observe the national regulations for the reprocessing of medical devices.
10. Under no circumstances should the instruments be cleaned in an ultrasonic bath! This leads to the impairment of
functionality.
11. Nouvag AG recommends using a sieve basket with a rinsing bar from 3mach (REF: 51401), a reusable container for
convenient preparation and storage (including transport) of the products. The sieve basket can be used for safe
storage of the products both during the washing process and during and after sterilization until the products are used.
The sieve basket is suitable for use with sterilization paper or a rigid sterilization container. On its own, it does not
have a barrier effect to protect sterility.
Achtung!
No responsibility can be accepted for the reuse of instruments in patients with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) or its vari-
ant (vCJD). The Robert Koch Institute recommends that used products be withdrawn from circulation after use to avoid
infection of other patients, users and third parties.
