Aquatec® KOGIA
3 Reconditioning
Before the conditioning decision is made, it should also be
verified beyond a critical evaluation of objective feasibility
that this is sensible from an economic and ecological
perspective, taking into consideration the risk associated
with the conditioning and use of the medical device and
the expense and quality assurance, or whether it would be
better to dispose of the medical device.
The reconditioning of the product encompasses the
following points:
•
3.1 Cleaning and Disinfection, page 6
•
•
IMPORTANT!
– If possible, continue to use the old
identification label; if this is not possible,
the new identification label must contain
the same information and the old serial
number. (Replacement of spare parts with
serial numbers).
– If screws with thread locker are loosened,
these must be replaced with new ones.
3.1 Cleaning and Disinfection
Manual cleaning and disinfection procedures must always
be conducted in accordance with documented work
instructions and with means and processes checked for
effectiveness and tailored to the medical device. For
mechanical cleaning and disinfection procedures it can be
procedurally ensured that the parameters necessary to
attain quantifiable cleaning and disinfection performance
are complied with. In order to guarantee the continuous
quality of manual and/or mechanical conditioning
procedures it must be proven by at least periodical checks
that the procedure is still effective and no unintentional
changes have arisen.
Conditioning ends with the documented approval for use
of the medical device. The chain of actions must be
optimized as weaknesses in one of the necessary individual
steps threaten the overall success. Transport and storage
must not have a negative impact on the characteristics of
the conditioned medical device. During transportation, it
must be ensured that contamination of a conditioned or
new medical device is precluded until its use by means of
strict separation of clean/unclean devices.
All detergents and disinfectants used must be effective,
compatible with one another and be gentle on the
materials used. Relevant cleaning and disinfection baths
must be regularly replaced at defined intervals in order to
guarantee their effectiveness.
With respect to contact time and concentration, the
disinfectants used must comply with the list of disinfectants
issued by ‘The National Institute for Clinical Excellence’
guidelines on Infection Control www.nice.org.uk/CG139
and your local infection control policy.
Detergents and disinfectants must be selected in
accordance with the equipment and facilities available in
each instance in order to guarantee a reliable cleaning
result.
Exchanged products and product components must be
disposed of in accordance with their respective material
composition.
