Cleaning
General Cleaning/Disinfecting
WARNING
Disconnect AC-powered equipment from the power line
before cleaning or disinfecting its surface. Turn off the
power to battery-powered equipment before cleaning or
disinfecting its surface.
The equipment should be cleaned on a regular basis. (Comply with the
policies of your institution’s infection control unit and/or biomed
department.) The exterior surfaces of the equipment may be cleaned with
a soft, lint-free cloth, using the following solution, as recommended in the
APIC Guideline for Selection and Use of Disinfectants (1996):
Sodium hypochlorite (5.2% household bleach) 1:500 dilution (100
ppm free chlorine)
CAUTION
Severe corrosion may occur to any metal parts that come
in contact with non-diluted bleach. Do not submerge
patient cable ends or leadwire ends.
To avoid damage to the equipment, follow these rules:
Always dilute the solutions according to the manufacturer’s
suggestions.
Always wipe off all the cleaning solution with a dry, lint free cloth
after cleaning or let air dry for at least 15 minutes.
Never use conductive solutions, solutions that contain chlorides, wax,
or wax compounds.
Never pour or spray water or any cleaning solution on the
equipment.
Never permit fluids to run behind switches, into the connectors, or
into any ventilation openings in the equipment.
