Cleaning And Disinfection - Arjohuntleigh Flowtron ACS900 Notice D'utilisation

5. Cleaning and Disinfection

The following processes are recommended, but should be adapted to comply with
the local or national guidelines (Decontamination of Medical Devices) which may
apply within the healthcare facility or the country of use. If you are uncertain, you
should seek advice from your local infection control specialist.
The system should be routinely decontaminated between patients and at regular
intervals while in use; as is good practice for all reusable medical devices
Remove the electrical supply to the pump by disconnecting the mains
power cable from the mains power supply before cleaning.
Protective clothing should always be worn when carrying out
decontamination procedures.
Do not use Phenol-based solutions or abrasive compounds or pads
during the decontamination process as these will damage the surface
coating.
Avoid immersing electrical parts in water during the cleaning process.
Do not spray cleaning solutions directly onto the pump.
Do not immerse the tubeset in water.
Garments are single patient use and hence cannot be cleaned or reused.
To Clean
Clean all exposed surfaces and remove any organic debris by wiping with a cloth
moistened with a simple (neutral) detergent and water.
Do not allow water or cleaning solutions to collect on the surface of the pump.
Do not use anything abrasive to clean the LCD window on the pump.
Chemical Disinfection
ArjoHuntleigh recommends a chlorine-releasing agent, such as sodium
hypochlorite, at a strength of 1,000ppm available chlorine (this may vary from
250ppm to 10,000ppm depending on local policy and contamination status).
Wipe all cleaned surfaces with the solution, then wipe using a cloth moistened with
water and dry thoroughly.
Alcohol based disinfectants (strength 70%) may be used as an alternative.
Make sure the product is dry before storage.
If an alternative disinfectant is selected from the wide variety available, we
recommend that suitability for use is confirmed with the chemical supplier prior to
use.
