Suggested Ultrasonic Cleaning Procedure
In all cases manufacturers’ instructions should be followed when
using an ultrasonic cleaning process. These are representative
steps.
Fill the ultrasonic cleaning tank with an approved medical
instrument cleaning solution such as CLN-LR012 available from
Tovatech following dilution instructions provided. Turn the cleaner
on to start the degassing process. This step removes entrained air
in new solutions that interferes with the efficiency of cavitation
and takes approximately 10 minutes.
In the meantime:
- Segregate instruments by alloy or composition to avoid potential
damage (Chromium plated instruments should not be cleaned
ultrasonically)
- Instruments with movable parts should be disassembled to facilitate
cleaning
- Place the instruments the ultrasonic cleaner’s mesh basket, taking
care that they do not come in contact with each other
- Cannulated or lumened instruments should be positioned to insure
interiors are wetted with the cleaning solution. In some instances
placing them on an angle will facilitate this
- Set the control panel per manufacturers’ instructions and start the
cleaning process
At the end of the cycle, remove the instruments from the ultrasonic
cleaning bath and thoroughly rinse them to remove all traces of the
cleaning solution. Deionized water rinses will avoid spotting. If
the instruments are not to be immediately disinfected and
sterilized be certain that they are thoroughly dried and protected.
Part reassembly can occur after sterilization.
Procedures should be in place to guide the replacement of used
ultrasonic cleaning solutions. In some instances it is recommended
that solution be drained and tanks thoroughly cleaned and dried
after each ultrasonic cleaning cycle. Most solutions available
today are biodegradable, which facilitates disposal but local
authorities should be consulted on proper practices.
The ultrasonic cleaner uses ultrasonic waves (vibration) using
water with detergents or enzymatic products to break up soil and
organic material on medical instruments/devices. These devices are
rinsed then autoclaved (sterilized). The autoclave sterilizer uses
heat, steam, and pressure to kill all pathogenic microorganisms and
their spores.
