Choosing a Disinfectant
When choosing a disinfectant, determine the required level of
disinfection. If the possibility of cross-contamination or exposure
to unhealthy or non-intact skin exists, then high level disinfection
should be performed. Good hand hygiene practice is highly
recommended to help further reduce the risk of
cross-contamination.
NOTE: For additional information about cleaning and disinfection, refer
to the recommendations of the Association for Professionals in
Infection Control (APIC), the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
(FDA), and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC). For
country-specific disinfection regulations, check with your local
regulatory infection control authorities.
NOTE: A validated, high-level disinfection process, combined with the
use of a sterile gel and a probe cover/sheath is an accepted
method of infection control for Ultrasound probes. Adequate
records or a logbook detailing the time, date, disinfection
method, and verification of disinfectant effectiveness or test
results is recommended. For more information about
establishing an evidence-based disinfection protocol for your
practice, refer to the FDA, CDC, HICPAC, APIC, or the Joint
Commission websites.
