Meter Cleaning and Disinfection Procedure
Clean and disinfect after each patient use by following this protocol
to help ensure effective cleaning and disinfection. Cleaning is not
the same as disinfecting. Cleaning is intended to remove protein,
visible blood, bodily fluids, and soils from the external surfaces.
Disinfecting means killing or preventing the growth of disease-
carrying microorganisms.
The Nova Max Pro Creat and eGFR Meter should be cleaned and
disinfected after each patient use to minimize the risk of transmission of
blood-borne pathogens between patients and healthcare professionals.
Healthcare professionals and others should follow Good Labora-
tory Practice guidelines and these important safety instructions.
Healthcare professionals should ensure they are wearing protective
gloves when disinfecting the meter and should wash their hands
thoroughly with soap and water after handling the Meter.
