4. Visually inspect the part after removing it from the rinse to ensure that no debris remains on the part.
5. Repeat the cleaning method if necessary.
Cleaning the outside of the Capnometry sensor and cable:
1. Use a cloth dampened with 70% isopropyl alcohol, 10% bleach solution, disinfectant spray cleaner such as Steris
Coverage® SprayHB, ammonia, or mild soap.
2. Wipe surfaces with a clean, water-dampened cloth before use. Ensure that the sensor is clean and dry before use.
Maintenance, Inspection and Testing:
An Extended System Test (EST) should be performed every time when cleaned components are re-assembled for use, to check
for leaks.
Packaging:
Follow your institution’s guidelines for packaging of material for sterilization.
Sterilization:
Only the following parts can be steam sterilized (autoclave): The Water Trap (PN 50000-40035), the Infant Hot Wire
Flow Sensor (PN 16465), and Water Collection Jar (PN 33985).
Steam sterilization (autoclave): maximum temperature 138 degrees Celsius (280 degrees Fahrenheit), minimum
temperature 132 degrees Celsius (270 degrees Fahrenheit) for a maximum of 18 minutes and a minimum of 15 minutes
(30 cycles maximum number for any of these parts).
Vacuum Steam Cycle: 3 pre-condition pulses (vacuum pulses). Sterilizer vacuum target set to 10-26 psig. Dwell at 132 -
138 degrees Celsius (270 to 280 degrees Fahrenheit) for 4 to 8 minutes duration. (50 cycles maximum for the hot-wire
infant flow sensor and 25 cycles maximum for the water trap/water collection jar.
Drying following steam cycle:
Minimum dry time: 15 minutes
The Infant Hot Wire Flow Sensor (part no. 16465) may also be cold sterilized using a 2.4% glutaraldehyde solution.
Storage:
Temperature: -20 to 60 degrees Celsius (-4 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit)
Humidity: 0 to 95% Relative Humidity non-condensing.
Capnometry Airway Adapters
Reusable Adapters
Clean reusable adapters by rinsing them in warm soapy water followed by soaking them in a liquid disinfectant such as 70%
isopropyl alcohol, 10% bleach solution, 2.4% glutaraldehyde solution such as Cidex®, Steris System1® or ammonia. Rinse with
sterile water and dry before use.
