Disinfecting
Wipe the surfaces of aView for approximately 15 minutes using a piece of sterile gauze
moistened with the alcohol mixture indicated below (approximately once every 2 min-
utes). Follow safety procedures for the handling of isopropyl. The gauze should be moist
and not dripping since liquid can affect the electronics inside the aView. Pay close atten-
tion to the button, rubber covers, screen, external casing and stand, slots and gaps on the
aView. Use a sterile cotton swab for these areas.
Solution: Isopropyl (alcohol) 95%; Concentration: 70-80%; Preparation: 80cc of 95% Isopro-
pyl (alcohol) added to 20cc of purified water (PURW) (Alternatively, use EPA-registered hos-
pital disinfection wipes containing at least 70% isopropyl. Safety precautions and direc-
tions of use of the manufacturer must be followed).
After cleaning and disinfection, the aView must be submitted to the pre-check procedure in section 4.1.
Between procedures, aView must be stored in accordance with local guidelines.
