Liquinox和Tergazyme用于B超探头的清洗
B超在医疗检测中扮演非常重要的角色，B超的探头需要彻底清洗
对于超声波探头和盖子的一般清洁，我们建议使用Liquinox®关键清洁液体洗涤剂。使用1-2%（1.25-2.5盎司/加仑或10-20毫升/升）的热Liquinox溶液，用清水彻底冲洗，并彻底干燥。
对于内部超声波探头，或与血液、组织、粘液和其他蛋白质残留物接触的探头，我们强烈推荐Tergazyme®酶活性粉状洗涤剂。如前所述，这将提供最强大的清洁和去除有机和蛋白质为基础的残留物，以确保消毒可以继续进行。Tergazyme清洁剂的1-3%温水溶液和漂洗液将提供彻底清洁的表面。
这两种清洁剂在医疗保健和医疗器械行业已经使用了几十年，用于可靠的清洁。现在比以往任何时候都更重要的是对设备和仪器进行适当的清洁。我们很高兴扮演我们的角色。
Q. I’m looking for appropriate cleaning solutions and recommendations for ultrasound probes. We have several types at our facility.
A.
equipment is used in applications ranging from pregnancy and blood flow to internal uses including transrectal and transesophageal echocardiograms. Because ultrasound probes and probe covers come in direct contact with human tissue both internal and externally, thorough cleaning and disinfection is absolutely vital. We have long stressed cleaning prior to disinfection as indicated by the CDC, however, the American Institute for Ultrasound in Medicine (AIUM) also states that “adequate transducer preparation is mandatory.” That preparation is thorough cleaning so the surface can be thoroughly disinfected by a registered EPA disinfectant.
For general cleaning of ultrasound probes and covers we recommend Liquinox® Critical Cleaning Liquid Detergent. A procedure of warm 1-2% (1.25 – 2.5 oz/gal, or 10 -20 mL/L) Liquinox solution, a thorough rinse with clean water, and thorough drying is a tried and trusted procedure.
For internal ultrasound probes, or those that are come into contact with blood, tissue, mucous and other proteinaceous residues, we most highly recommend Tergazyme® Enzyme-Active Powdered Detergent. As noted previously, this will provide the most robust cleaning and removal of organic and protein-based residues to ensure disinfection can proceed. A warm 1-3% solution of Tergazyme detergent and rinse will provide a thoroughly cleaned surface.
Both of these detergents have been used for decades in healthcare and medical device industries for reliable cleaning. It is now more important than ever to have devices and instruments properly cleaned. We’re glad to play our part.
