Sterilization
Warning

not use until you clean, disinfect and sterilize the rigid

3-2-1 Cleaning
Caution
Meticulous and thorough cleaning of the device is required in
order to achieve high level disinfection or sterilization. Failure to
properly clean the device will result in ineffective or incomplete
high level disinfection or sterilization.
Caution
Do not immerse the rigid Laryngostroboscope longer than
required in disinfectant solution. This can cause damage,
including clouding of the lenses and loosening of gluing agents.
Note Avoid any harsh materials that can scratch or mar optical
and outer surfaces of the device.
Note Remove any detachable items or components and
process these in a similar manner.
After every use, wash and clean each device, removing all tissue,
materials, and debris.
1.
Prepare an enzymatic detergent solution as recommended by the
manufacturer. Add a sufficient volume of the prepared solution to a
basin to cover the devices. (Note: The cleaning validation study was
performed using Klenzyme
2.
Leave the devices to soak for two minutes at the temperature
recommended by the detergent manufacturer. This will remove
proteinaceous material from the devices.
