10. Decontamination
The following processes are recommended, but should be adapted to comply with
the local or national guidelines (Decontamination of Medical Devices) which may
apply within the Healthcare Facility or the country of use. If you are uncertain, you
should seek advice from your local Infection Control Specialist.
The Hydroven 12 system should be routinely decontaminated between patients and
at regular intervals while in use; as is good practice for all reusable medical devices.
WARNING: Remove the electrical supply to the pump by
disconnecting the mains power cord from the mains power
supply before cleaning.
Protective clothing should always be worn when carrying out
decontamination procedures.
CAUTION: Do not use Phenol-based solutions or abrasive
compounds or pads during the decontamination process
as these will damage the surface coating. Avoid immersing
electrical parts in water during the cleaning process. Do
not spray cleaning solutions directly onto the pump. Do not
immerse the tubeset in water.
10.1 Cleaning
Clean all exposed surfaces and remove any organic debris by wiping with a cloth
moistened with a simple (neutral) detergent and water.
Do not allow water or cleaning solutions to collect on the surface of the pump.
10.2 Chemical Disinfection
We recommend a chlorine-releasing agent, such as sodium hypochlorite, at a
strength of 1,000ppm available chlorine (this may vary from 250ppm to 10,000ppm
depending on local policy and contamination status).
Wipe all cleaned surfaces with the solution, then wipe using a cloth moistened with
water and dry thoroughly.
Alcohol based disinfectants (strength 70%) may be used as an alternative.
Ensure the product is dry before storage.
If an alternative disinfectant is selected from the wide variety available we
recommend that suitability for use is confirmed with the chemical supplier prior to
use.
10.3 Cleaning and Sterilising Garments
Wipe down garments using a neutral detergent or soap powder at 40°C. Dry
thoroughly.
After cleaning gas sterilisation is possible, however:
•
Do not exceed 51°C (120°F).
•
Do not autoclave.
