Procedures for reprocessing
MANUAL CLEANING
1.
Rinse the components under running cold utility (tap) water to remove gross soil.
2.
Prepare a detergent bath using a cleaning detergent solution, e.g. Neodisher®
MediClean Forte or equivalent, for the removal of residues of dried and denatured
blood and proteins, using the detergent manufacturer's recommended concentration.
3.
Fully immerse the components to keep them submerged in the solution according to
the detergent instruction label. During the soak time thoroughly clean the components
with a soft brush and flush the bags and lumens until all visible soil is removed.
4.
Thoroughly rinse the articles by fully immersing them in tap water, agitating and
allowing them to set for a minimum of 3 minutes.
5.
Repeat the previous step two more times for a total of three rinses using a fresh batch
of tap water each time.
6.
Dry the components with a clean lint-free cloth and compressed air.
AUTOMATED CLEANING AND THERMAL DISINFECTION (NOT APPLICABLE FOR
OXYGEN RESERVOIR TUBE)
1.

CHEMICAL DISINFECTION
1.
Equilibrate the bath of Cidex OPA, or an equivalent OPA (ortho-phthalaldehyde), disinfectant
at the temperature specified in the OPA disinfectant manufacturer's instructions.
2.
Ensure the minimum effective concentration (MEC) of the OPA disinfectant using the
OPA test strips specified in the OPA disinfectant manufacturer's instructions.
3.
Fully immerse the device in the OPA and ensure that all air bubbles are removed from
the device surface by agitating the device.
4.
Allow the device to soak for the time specified by the OPA disinfectant
manufacturer's instructions.
5.
Thoroughly rinse the device by fully immersing it in purified water, agitating and
allowing it to set for a minimum of 1 minute. During the rinse, flush the bag with the
purified water.
6.
Repeat step 5 two more times for a total of 3 rinses using a fresh batch of purified
water each time.
7.
Dry the device using a sterile lint-free cloth.
STERILIZATION (NOT APPLICABLE FOR OXYGEN RESERVOIR TUBE)
Sterilize the product using a gravity steam autoclave running a full cycle at 134 – 135 ˚C
(274 – 275 ˚F) with an exposure time of 10 minutes and a dry time of 45 minutes. Leave the
components to dry and/or cool completely before reassembling the resuscitator.
