CARE AND CLEANING

General Recommendations
The following are the ArjoHuntleigh-recommended cleaning and infection
control procedures for the Citadel Patient Therapy System.
It is recommended that all sections of this guide be reviewed prior to product
use. Carefully read the
sections in the Introduction
on the Citadel Patient Therapy System.
To prevent cross contamination or equipment damage,
ArjoHuntleigh recommends that the Citadel Patient Therapy
System be cleaned during use and between patients according
to the instructions below. Local protocols and regulations /
procedures for blood borne pathogens may be used provided the
manufacturer's instructions are followed.
Always disconnect the Citadel Bed Frame System from wall
outlet before cleaning. Failure do so could result in equipment
damage and / or electric shock.
Decontamination
Do not allow the mains plug or power cord to get wet.
Do not use abrasive compounds or pads, or phenol-based
disinfectants.
Do not use jet stream cleaning or wash tunnels.
The air mattress control unit should be cleaned and disinfected weekly, and
before a new patient is placed on the bed.
Cleaning
• Wearing suitable protective clothing, clean all surfaces with a
disposable cloth moistened in hand-hot water and a neutral detergent.
• Wipe over with a new disposable cloth moistened with plain water, and
dry with disposable paper towels.
• Allow the cleaned parts to dry before replacing the mattress.
Disinfection
ArjoHuntleigh recommends disinfection using a wipe down approach with
a 70% alcohol solution or bleach 1000 ppm. Although bleach may be
used for wipe-down disinfection, please be aware that if used extensively,
discoloration and fading of the fabrics and labels may occur. Bleach
should not be used when laundering the cover sheet. See page 32 for
laundering instructions.
