CAUTION
Do not use acetone or ketone solvents for cleaning; do not use an
autoclave or steam cleaner.
Cables and leadwires can be cleaned with a warm, damp cloth and mild soap,
or isopropyl alcohol wipes. Refer to page 7-4 for safe cleaning techniques.
For more intensive disinfecting (near sterile) Ethylene Oxide (ETO) is
acceptable but will reduce the useful lifetime of the cable or leadwire.
CAUTION
The decision to sterilize must be made per your institution’s
requirements with an awareness of the effect on the integrity of
the cable or leadwire.
For other applied parts such as temperature sensors, catheters, pulse oximetry
probes, and NBP cuffs, refer to the documentation supplied with these parts for
cleaning, sterilization, or disinfecting methods.
