Classifications for reprocessing
Classification of medical devices
The classification depends on the intended use of
the medical device.
The risk of infection transmission through the
application of the product to the patient without
proper reprocessing is the basis of the Spaulding
classification.
Classification of device-specific components
The following list is a recommendation from Dräger.
Non-critical
– Surface of the device including screen
– Removable components of the basic unit (e.g.,
accessories bag)
WARNING
Risk due to inappropriately reprocessed prod-
ucts
Reusable products must be reprocessed, oth-
erwise there is an increased risk of infection.
– Follow the infection prevention policies
and reprocessing regulations of the
health-care facility.

policies and reprocessing regulations.

ing.

WARNING
Risk of patient injury

reprocessed, or sterilized.
Reuse, reprocessing or sterilization can lead
to a failure of the accessories and cause inju-
ries to the patient.

Risk due to faulty products
Signs of wear, e.g., cracks, deformation, discolor-
ation, or peeling may occur with reprocessed
products.
Check the products for signs of wear and replace
