available then SafeTway mouthpieces may be used based on the
customer own risk assessment and hygiene controls.
Before use by the next subject, the mouthpiece, outside surfaces
and owhead of the device should be cleaned with a cloth
impregnated with 70% isopropyl alcohol. The device should be
cleaned before and after an extended period of storage. If you
suspect that a device intended for multi-patient use has become
contaminated, it should be replaced.
When used in the clinic environment, it is recommended that
the device be replaced annually. There is no planned preventive
maintenance for this medical device.
