7.2. USING SENSOR PROTECTORS
In order to ensure maximal hygienic safety for the patient, it is imperative to cover the Sopix² sensor with a
disposable sensor protector.
WARNING:
It is recommended to be far-sighted and have plenty of disposable hygienic protectors because the Sopix² system
should not be used without them.
NOTE:
If the sensor cap is torn when examining a patient or if the Sopix² sensor has been infected by withdrawing
the sensor protector, it is essential to totally disinfect the Sopix² sensor and the first 40cm of cable. In order
to do this, please refer to the table in chapter « sensor maintenance ».
- Place the sensor protector with gloves,
- Change the sensor protector for each new patient,
- Preferably use the sensor protectors especially designed for Sopix² sensors,
- Keep the sensor protectors in a dry and clean place,
- Dispose of the used sensor protectors with the other biologically and potentially hazardous infected
wastes,
- Do not use finger cots.
