Product Care
Immediate Cleaning After Use
Begin cleaning immediately after use to prevent blood, tissue and fluids from drying on the instrument. Wipe at point of use with a sterile damp cloth or sponge; enzymatic products may be applied to prevent drying prior to detailed cleaning.

Safe Handling and Transportation
Transfer used instruments in sealed, puncture-resistant containers to the reprocessing area to prevent leakage and accidental exposure. Clearly identify containers as biohazardous.

Thorough Manual Cleaning
Manual cleaning is essential before advanced processing. Use soft brushes, approved detergents and lint-free cloths; pay attention to hinges, grooves, locking mechanisms and joints. Rinse thoroughly with purified water (distilled or deionized) to remove detergent residue.

Advanced Mechanical Cleaning
Use ultrasonic cleaners and automated washer-disinfectors to remove microscopic contaminants. Arrange instruments according to manufacturer instructions and inspect equipment routinely.

Effective Sterilization Methods
Sterilization destroys microorganisms including spores. Common methods include:

• Steam sterilization (autoclave)
• Ethylene oxide gas sterilization
• Hydrogen peroxide plasma sterilization
• Dry heat sterilization

Residue Removal Following Sterilization
After gas sterilization, rinse instruments with purified water to remove any chemical residues.

Proper Drying Procedures
Allow instruments exposed to steam or gas sterilization to cool and aerate before drying. Ensure complete drying to prevent corrosion; use lint-free cloths or filtered compressed air as needed.

Instrument Lubrication
Apply medical-grade, water-soluble instrument lubricant to hinges and movable parts as recommended to maintain functionality and reduce wear.

Inspection and Functional Assessment
Inspect each instrument before packaging and storage for cleanliness, structural integrity and operational performance; remove any instrument that fails inspection for reprocessing or repair.

Sterile Packaging Requirements
Package instruments in sterilization pouches, wraps or rigid systems as appropriate. Seal securely and label with sterilization date, contents and tracking information.

Storage and Shelf Management
Store sterile instruments in a clean, dry, controlled environment. Keep instruments off the floor, avoid excessive moisture and direct sunlight, and manage inventory with first-in, first-out rotation.

Documentation and Quality Compliance
Maintain records of sterilization cycles, processing methods, equipment performance, operator details, biological monitoring and maintenance logs to ensure traceability and regulatory compliance.
