III. CLEANING - MAINTENANCE
III. 1. Cleaning
Only the outside of the NewLife
®
Intensity is to be cleaned, with a dry cloth or, if necessary,
a damp sponge and clean or soapy water, then thoroughly dried with wipes and an alcohol-based
solution. Acetone, solvents or any other ammable products must not be used. Do not use
abrasive powders.
The removable dust lter (9) must be cleaned in soapy water after
approximately 100 hours of use, or when required. Rinse and
wipe dry. Fit a dry lter.
III. 2. Everyday disinfection
Due to the presence of the product lter inside the device,
everyday disinfection only concerns the external oxygen therapy
accessories: humidier, probes, nasal cannulas (refer to the respective instructions for use).
The use of alcohol-based solutions means that the device must be
switched off.
a - The following minimum guidelines must be respected:
• Humidier :
Daily:
- empty the water from the humidier.
- rinse the humidier ask under running water.
- Fill the humidier up to the mark with slightly mineralised water.
Regularly:
- Disinfect the equipment by immersing them in a disinfectant solution (in general, we recommend
using water containing a small amount of chlorine bleach).
- Rinse and dry.
- Check that the humidier lid seal is in good condition.
• Oxygen administration devices:
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
b - For each new patient:
The humidier must be sterilised if possible or changed. The NewLife
®
Intensity must be
cleaned and disinfected as per the above instructions. The dust lter should preferably be changed.
The entire oxygen administration circuit (oxygen therapy nasal cannulas, etc.) must be changed.
