Cleaning and Disinfection Cleaning and disinfection of the ActiV.A.C.® Therapy Unit includes wipedown of all hard surface components. The ActiV.A.C.® Therapy Unit must be cleaned and disinfected: 1. If it becomes soiled during patient use. 2. Between each patient use.
Infection Control Institutional policies regarding infection control may vary; however, KCI recommends the following regarding infection control when processing KCI V.A.C.® Therapy devices: • Designate ‘contaminated’ and ‘clean’ areas for separating and storing equipment before and after transport, cleaning and disinfection. Follow protocols to ensure no cross-contamination occurs between unclean and clean units. • Use personal protective equipment (PPE) and hand hygiene protocols in accordance with the following standards: • 29 CFR 1910.1030, OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard • MMWR October 2002;51 (No. RR-16), Guidelines for Hand Hygiene in Healthcare Settings • Clean all organic material from the therapy unit prior to disinfection. • Use hospital-grade cleaners and disinfectants, according to the CDC 2008 Guideline for Disinfection and Sterilization in Healthcare Facilities. • Do not immerse or saturate the therapy unit with fluids to avoid damage to the electronics in the device. Follow institutional procedures used for the cleaning and disinfection of other hard surface durable electronic medical equipment. Ensure that the ActiV.A.C.® Therapy Unit and its power supply are not connected to AC power when using cleaning fluids of any nature.
Supplies and Equipment Needed • Hospital grade antiseptic used per label directions • Clear plastic bags (as appropriate) • Cotton tipped applicators • Rubber bands • Tweezers or similar tool • #1 Phillips screwdriver
General Cleaning Recommendations • Use PPE as appropriate. • For items that are wiped down, ensure item’s entire surface is completely covered with the cleaning fluid and remains wet for a minimum of 60 seconds.
