Cleaning the
keyboard Disinfect computer keyboards daily, when visibly soiled, or when they become
contaminated with blood. Quaternary ammonium-containing disinfectants may be
used on keyboard (Rutala et al. 2006).
Before using the disinfecting agent, perform a test on only one key
or on an old keyboard to guard against possible bleaching or discoloration of the
keys.
If a keyboard cover is used, Rutala et al. (2006) recommends it be disinfected daily.
We recommend that mobile computers used by patients be disinfected before the next
patient uses it.
Cleaning the
garment Wash contaminated garments with laundry detergent and hot water or with a phenolic
household detergent. The garment should be washed and rinsed a second time without
the phenolic.
Air dry the garment only.
Cleaning recording
equipment and
supplies after
contact with Jacob
Creutzfeld disease Ancillary electroneurodiagnostic supplies and equipment such as
cables, marking pencil, and recording instrument should be wiped down with
undiluted bleach or a 1 N sodium hydroxide solution (Airman 2000). If items
cannot be disinfected in this manner, they should be disposed of and not reused.
We recommend that you follow your internal infection control policies.
