Resposable Cover Options
Resposable Covers
Resposable covers, meaning they can be used once and discarded, or reused on the same patient,
are available for all levels of cross-contamination protection should they be preferred for certain
patient populations, and are still very cost effective. These options include resposable caps and full
instrument sheaths, the sheaths being mainly used for isolation patients.
Using the Resposable Probe Caps:
1.
Apply cap by pushing onto the probe head with fingers.
2. Remove cap by pushing edge forward with thumb.
3. Caps may be reused on the same patient.
Using the Resposable Full Instrument Sheaths:
1.
Insert instrument into sheath bottom end first.
If instrument is on a cable, insert probe end first and twist sheath at neck with
fingers to assure film is smooth over probe lens.
2.
Wrap additional film around probe neck.
Film should be smooth over probe lens.
3.
Slide additional film under fingers while using.
Resposable covers can be discarded in normal trash. The operator is responsible for checking the compatibility of the
thermometer, probe cover, and monitoring equipment. Incompatible components can result in degraded performance.
