Sensors
Adhesive sensors are sterile and for single use only. Reusable sensors should be
cleaned before reuse with a 70% alcohol solution. If low-level disinfection is
required, use a 1:10 bleach solution. Do not use undiluted bleach (5% - 5.25%
sodium chlorite) or any cleaning solution other than those recommended here
because permanent damage to the sensor could occur. Do not sterilize the sensor by
irradiation, steam, or ethylene oxide. If disposable sensors or their packaging are
damaged, they must be disposed of as advised in this appendix.
To clean or disinfect the sensor:
1. Saturate a clean, dry gauze pad with the cleaning solution. Wipe all surfaces of
the sensor and cable with this gauze pad.
2. Saturate another clean, dry gauze pad with sterile or distilled water. Wipe all
surfaces of the sensor and cable with this gauze pad.
3. Dry the sensor and cable by wiping all surfaces with a clean, dry gauze pad.
Periodic Thermal Printhead Cleaning
The thermal printhead heater elements must be cleaned at regular intervals to
remove any accumulated paper dust. The heater elements may be cleaned with
methanol or isopropyl alcohol. Care must be taken to avoid touching the heater
elements with bare hands.
CAUTION
AIR DRYING – Allow to air dry completely prior to using the
monitor.
Cleaning the UA Strain Gauge
1. Remove the plastic dome.
2. If desired, wash the transducer with sterile water or saline solution.
3. Carefully clean the diaphragm seal with a cotton swab to remove deposits.
Avoid excessive pressure since this may damage the diaphragm. If there are
excessive stains on the diaphragm or sides of the transducer, remove with a
cotton swab and solvents of increasing strength.
