Package the Handpiece for Sterilization
After you have cleaned the disassembled handpiece, prepare it for
sterilization. Integra provides sterilizer cases for steam sterilization of the
CUSA EXcel handpieces. They protect the handpieces during sterilization
and during transfer to the sterile field. The case for the 23 kHz handpiece
is gray; for the 36 kHz handpiece, white.
1. Put the disassembled handpiece into the case first. Align the
handpiece with the outline on the case bottom. Secure the handpiece
with the silicone strap.
2. Close the protective cover over the handpiece.
3. Place the nosecone into the opening in the protective cover.
4. Coil the cable and manifold tubing (if attached) around the inside of
the case.
5. Put the handpiece connector in the center compartment and secure it
in place.
