Cleaning and Disinfecting
You must take all necessary precautions to eliminate the possibility of
exposing patients, operators, or third parties to hazardous or infectious
materials. Use universal precautions when cleaning and disinfecting. You
should treat all portions of the imaging system that come in contact with
human blood or other body fluids as if they were known to be infectious.
All exterior parts of the system, including the control panel, transducers, and
biopsy devices, should be cleaned and/or disinfected as necessary or
between uses. Clean each component to remove any surface particles.
Disinfect the components to kill vegetative organisms and viruses.
Cleaning and Disinfecting the System
WARNING:
To avoid electric shock and damage to the system, always power
off and disconnect the equipment from the AC power source before cleaning
and disinfecting.
WARNING:
Contents of some disinfecting agents are known to be health
hazards. Their concentration in the air must not exceed an applicable specified
limit. Comply with the manufacturer's instructions when using these agents.
Caution:
To avoid the possibility of static shock and damage to the ultrasound
system, avoid the use of aerosol spray cleaners on the monitor screens.
Caution:
Do not clean the system with chlorinated or aromatic solvents, acidic
or basic solutions, isopropyl alcohol or strong cleaners such as ammoniated
products, as these can damage the surface of the system.
Isopropyl alcohol
exception:
It is acceptable to use isopropyl alcohol when cleaning the trackball
assembly only. Use the recommended cleaning procedure.
Caution:
Do not use spray cleaners on the ultrasound system, or pour fluid
onto the system surfaces, as fluid can seep into the system and damage
electronic components. It is also possible for the solvent fumes to build up and
form flammable gases or damage internal components.
Caution:
Do not pour any fluid onto the ultrasound system surfaces, as fluid
seepage into the electrical circuitry may cause excessive leakage current or
system failure.
