High-level disinfection – Soak
High-Level Disinfection is required for devices that contact
non-intact skin.
In order for cleaner to be effective, all visible residues must be
removed during the cleaning process. Follow the cleaning
instructions as given in ‘Manual cleaning Instructions’ on
page 6-10 to clean the probe before performing disinfection.
Do not soak probes in cleaner for longer than stated by the
chemical manufacturers instructions for use. Extended soaking
may cause probe damage and early failure of the enclosure,
resulting in possible electric shock hazard.
1. Prepare a basin with the high-level disinfectant per the
manufacturer’s instructions for use. Be sure to follow all
precautions for storage, use and disposal. Observe
specifically soak times and dilution rates.
2. Immerse cleaned and dried probe in the disinfectant for the
time specified by the chemical manufacturer and ensure no
air bubbles are trapped.
3. Thoroughly rinse the probe to remove traces of the
disinfectant. Follow the disinfectant manufacturers
instructions.
4. Thoroughly dry all surfaces of the device using a sterile,
lint-free wipe or cloth, changing wipes/ cloths when
necessary to ensure the device is completely dry.
NOTE: High-level disinfectants may be available as powder
products. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for use for
preparing the disinfecting solution from the powder product.
DO NOT soak probes in cleaner for longer than is stated by the
chemical instructions for use. Extended soaking may cause
probe damage and early failure of the enclosure, resulting in
possible electric shock hazard.
