Cleaning – Clean Side (Pack and Prep)
1) Clean and Disinfection – Begin by cleaning the INSPEKTOR CT
Borescope fiber. The INSPEKTOR® CT Borescope may be wiped with a
70% isopropyl alcohol wipe. Follow the manufacturer’s cleaning
agent’s instructions for use. Then, wipe with a water moistened
fiber-free cloth. (See Caution below.) If the Borescope comes in
contact with any visible foreign matter, it should be cleaned with a
hospital approved disinfectant wipe as noted in Cleaning Dirty Side.
The scope should then be cleaned using High Level Disinfection,
instructions listed below, to prevent any cross contamination prior
to reusing on the clean side. (See below or HD Disinfection)
2) High Level Disinfection for end of day cleaning (2 ways)
High level disinfection may be achieved by:
submersing the INSPEKTOR® Borescope in a Cidex® OPA
or like solution mixed according to the manufacturer’s
Instructions. (Note: The Connector Cap must be securely
snapped into place before submersion.) Rinse and wipe
with a fiber free cloth.
Wiping the INSPEKTOR CT Borescope with a hospital
approved Tuberculocidal wipe with appropriate contact
time, followed by wiping down with a water moistened
fiber free cloth.
Note: High level disinfection should be done weekly, or at a regular interval,
determined by the facility, to prevent microbial growth.
3) Sterilize - Note: Low Temperature Sterilization of the
INSPEKTOR® Borescope is not required if high level disinfection
is utilized.
