To clean the exhalation valve, sense lines, wye and reusable patient circuit:
1) Remove all particulate matter and bathe for a minimum of 10 minutes using one of the following
solutions warmed to 95°F to 150°F (35°C to 65.5°C):
mild detergent, 50% water / 50% white vinegar solution, or liquid cleaner (e.g., KlenZyme®
or other enzymatic cleaner)
Ultrasonic cleaning is not recommended.
2) Rinse gently for 2 minutes and use a low flow air source (less than 10 L/min) to eliminate any
residual fluid.
To clean the water trap (if used), use a mild detergent solution followed by rinsing and drying
with a low-flow air source.
To high level disinfect the exhalation valve, sense lines, wye and reusable patient circuit:
1) Remove all particulate matter and bathe in a glutaraldehyde solution (e.g., Cidex (2%)) for 20
minutes.
2) Rinse gently for 2 minutes and use a low flow air source (less than 10 L/min) to eliminate any
residual fluid.
Sterilization:
Sterilization of the patient circuit components and water traps should follow individual institution
processes or guidelines.
To reassemble the exhalation valve and patient circuit:
1) Insert the side of the diaphragm with the scalloped edge into the mating cavity on the inside of
the valve cap.
CAUTION
Valve assembly - If the diaphragm is inserted backwards when assembling the valve, it may
adversely affect the operation of the ventilator. Be sure to insert the side of the diaphragm with the
scalloped edge into the mating cavity on the inside of the valve cap.
ATTENTION
Assemblage de la valve – Si le diaphragme est inséré à l’envers lors de l’assemblage de la valve, il
peut entraver le fonctionnement du ventilateur. S’assurer d’insérer le côté du diaphragme dont le bord
est festonné dans la cavité commune à l’intérieur du couvercle de la valve.
