When using a sterilant, follow the following steps:
a. Prepare a sterilant by using sterile distilled or softened water when necessary.
b. Immerse the probe head in the sterilant and shake the probe appropriately to remove any
bubbles on the probe surface.
For details about the probe immersion duration, see the operator’s manual provided by the
manufacturer.
Figure 13-1 Immerse the intra-operative probe in the solution (for reference)
c. Rinse the probe thoroughly by using a large amount of sterile distilled or softened water
(about 2 gallons) at room temperature for about 30 s to remove the residual sterilant.
Repeat the operation twice. Or follow the sterilant manufacturer’s instructions regarding
rinsing.
d. Dry the probe by wiping with a piece of sterile disposable lint-free soft cloth.
Do not dry the probe by heating.
4. Check whether the probe has defects such as peeling, rifts, bumps, cracks, or liquid spill. If
such defects exist, the probe has reached the end of its service life. In this case, stop using it
and contact the Mindray service department.
5. Store the probe in a cool, clean and dry environment. And repeat the cleaning and sterilization
process before the next use.
