Cleaning and Low Level Disinfection
This is a recommended daily housekeeping practice to keep the equipment clean and free of
contaminants which could contribute to transmission of infection. The following practices are
recommended for use when treating intact skin without the presence of physiologic fluids such as
blood and urine.
Clean equipment daily with ACP germicidal wipes. At the end of the day, wipe common contact surfaces,
such as control panel and diathermy arm and head, with germicidal disposable wipe and allow to air dry.
This technique will inactivate
M. tuberculosis
as well as most bacteria and viruses. This will also facilitate
removal of organic material contaminants from equipment.
Clean diathermy head with ACP germicidal wipes after each patient use.
Intermediate Level Disinfection
This method is recommended to keep the equipment clean and free of contaminants when used between patients for
treatment of non-intact skin or incontinence management, where there is an increased risk of patient cross-
contamination.
After each use, clean common contact surfaces, such as control panel and diathermy arm and head, with
ACP germicidal wipes.
With a second ACP germicidal cloth, wipe again leaving surfaces wet for at least 5 minutes. Allow the
surface to air dry before patient use.
Barriers should also be used on the equipment for treatment of non-intact skin or incontinence
management. This technique will inactivate
M. tuberculosis
as well as most bacteria and viruses.
