Procedure
1. Prepare the enzymatic detergent according to the
manufacturer’s instructions and the 10% bleach solution,
in separate spray bottles.
2. Spray the detergent liberally on device. If the material is
dried on, allow the cuff to sit for 1 minute. For soil on
the soft part of the closure or the cuff itself, wipe the
material off with a soft cloth. For persistent
contamination on the soft part of the closure, use a soft-
bristled brush to loosen particles. Rinse with copious
amounts of distilled water. Repeat until no visible
contamination remains. For soil on the hook part of the
closure, use a soft-bristled brush to remove the material,
and rinse with copious amounts of distilled water. Repeat
until no visible contamination remains.
3. Spray the 10% bleach solution on the affected area until
the area is saturated. Allow the cuff to sit for 5 minutes.
4. Wipe away any excess solution and rinse the cuff again
with distilled water. Allow 2 hours for drying.
The user has the responsibility to validate any deviations
