Cleaning and disinfecting 107
Cleaning and disinfecting
Determining the required cleaning and disinfecting level
The level of cleaning and disinfecting required for the system is dictated by the type of tissue it contacts
during use. Use
Table 7-1, “Choosing a cleaning and disinfecting method” on page 107 to determine
the level of cleaning and disinfecting required.
Spaulding classifications
Spaulding classifications (non-critical, semi-critical) determine the approach for cleaning and disinfecting
medical equipment based on the device, the way it has been used, and the risk of infection. The system and
transducers are designed for use within the Spaulding classifications of non-critical and semi-critical uses.
WARNINGS

mandated by the American Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Failure to follow
