Preparation for sterilisation
Step 1 Dry cable
Dry the cable with a lint-free cloth
and/or pressurised or medical
air (maximum air pressure 3 bar
[43.5 psi]).
Ensure that the cable, including
its connectors and grooves, is dry
before moving to the next step.
Ensure that electrosurgery
instrument cables have been
thoroughly dried before
sterilisation as any moisture
remaining could result in
ineective sterilisation.
If using a cloth to dry
electrosurgery instrument
cables, ensure that the cloth
is lint-free as lint could cause
contamination and/or ineective
sterilisation.
