DIRECTIONS FOR ASSEMBLYAs with any decontamination procedure, personnel should follow accepted guidelines for hand washing, the use of protective attire, etc., as recommended by A.A.M.I. Standards and Recommended Practice, “Comprehensive Guide to Steam Sterilization and Sterility Assurance in Health Care Facilities,” ANSI/AAMI ST79:2006. Disinfection or sterilization cannot be accomplished without first thoroughly cleaning medical devices/equipment.

DECONTAMINATION is a two step process.

1. Thorough cleaning and rinsing.

2. Sterilization or disinfection.

A. MANUAL DECONTAMINATION:

PRECLEANING: Remove gross debris from Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder with a lap sponge and sterile water after the procedure to prevent drying on of blood and body fluids, etc. It is important to rinse the JARIT Endoscope & Instrument Holder that has been exposed to blood and saline solution before these substances dry. Blood and body fluids as well as saline solutions are highly corrosive. In addition, blood can produce a stain that is difficult to remove.

PREPARING THE JARIT® ENDOSCOPE & INSTRUMENT HOLDER FOR TRANSPORT TO DECONTAMINATION:Immediately after the surgical procedure, place the Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder into an instrument tray and cover with a towel. Transport tray in an impervious plastic bag or container to the decontamination environment (keep the outside of the containment clean).

CLEANING: To prevent the formation of biofilm, cleaning shouldoccur as soon as possible after the Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder is used. Biofilm is an accumulation of a biomass of bacteria and extracellular material that tightly adheres itself to the surface of the Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder. It cannot be easily removed, and protects microorganisms from being easily removed by ordinary cleaning/decontamination methods used in hospitals.

Step 1. Pre-Rinse, as necessary with tap water.

WARNING The central handle of the articulated arm must be tightened during the cleaning, rinsing and disinfection process.

Step 2. Cleaning the Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder: The use of a neutral pH detergents (≥ 4pH and ≤9pH) is vital to the maintenance of the Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder. Contact with acidic or alkaline solution will remove the Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holders’ protective barrier of chromium oxide, often leading to corrosion, pitting, and breakage. The ideal cleaning agent is nonabrasive, low-foaming and free-rinsing. Using a small clean hand-held brush, remove soil from all surfaces of the Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder. Never use steel wool, wire brushes, scalpel blades or highly abrasive detergent or cleansers to remove soil from the Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder. These will damage the Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holders’ protective surface and lead to corrosion. Use a clean soft bristled brush to clean the Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder. A build-up of soil, debris, lubricants, etc. will make it difficult to use the Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder and eventually irreparably damage it. Manual cleaning should remove all visible residue.

WARNING Instruments made of aluminum alloys will be damaged by basic(pH>9) cleaning agents and solvents.Step 3. Rinse: Thoroughly rinse the Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder by immersing it in tap water and wiping with a clean, soft cloth.

Step 4. Final Rinse: Should be with “treated water”. Softened or deionized water should be used for the final rinse to better remove detergents etc.

• Softening water removes calcium and magnesium ions that cause waterto be hard. Iron ions may also be removed by this treatment.

• Deionization removes ionized salts and particles from the water. Excessively hard water can spot or stain the Jarit® Endoscope & InstrumentHolder and excessive chlorine in water can cause pitting of the Jarit®

Endoscope & Instrument Holder.

• Deionized water is preferred for the final rinse.

Step 5. Decontaminate Clean Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder: Once the Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder has been cleaned, it must be rendered safe for handling, inspection and assembly.

Step 6. Visual Inspection of the Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder: Visually inspect the Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder for cleanliness and to ensure all parts are in proper working order. Inspection is a vital part of proper care and maintenance. The Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder in need of repair will not perform accurately in surgery and breakage is likely to occur. DO NOT USE a damaged Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder.

B. MECHANICAL DECONTAMINATIONThe Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder may be processed in an automatic washer decontaminator/disinfector. Follow the manufacturer’s specifications when using automatic washer decontaminators/disinfectors. They usually require the use of a low foaming, free rinsing detergent with a neutral pH (7.0). A high-foaming detergent may clean effectively but will often leave residual deposits on the Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder and do harm to mechanical washers. Automated washer decontaminator/disinfectors usually have adjustable wash and rinse times. Some washers enable the user to customize extra cycles to process heavily soiled Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holders more effectively. Water quality for rinsing cycles should be sterile or germ-poor (maximum 10 germs/ml) and endotoxin-free (maximum 0.25 endotoxin units/ml) water (Aqua purificata). Air used for drying should be filtered. The cleaning and disinfecting apparatus should be serviced and checked regularly.

When choosing cleaning and disinfecting agents, please make sure that they do not contain the following:

• No organic/inorganic, respectively oxidizing acids (pH should not be lessthan 4, the use of neutral/enzymatic agents is recommended)

• No base (pH should not be higher than 9, the use of neutral/enzymatic agents is recommended).

• Solvents (alcohol, benzene, acetone, ...)

• Phenol

• Chlorine, bromine, iodine

• Chlorine salts (in particular ammonium chloride compounds), chlorinated/halogenated hydrocarbons

• Oxidizing agents, peroxide, hypochloride

Do not clean any of the instruments with metal brushes or steel wool.

All the instruments should not be exposed at temperatures higher than 137ºC (279ºF).

Check with a Jarit® Technical Service representative at 1-800-431-1123 for questions regarding processingdelicate, complex and/or multipart instruments by this method.

C. PREPARING THE JARIT® ENDOSCOPE & INSTRUMENTHOLDER FOR STERILIZATIONDrying: Before the Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder is wrapped for sterilization or storage, it must be thoroughly dry. If the Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder is wet when wrapped for sterilization, it is likely to come out of the sterilizer wet. “Wet Packs” are not suitable for use after sterilization because they may be easily contaminated when handled. In addition, remaining moisture, particularly in the hinges, may result in corrosion that will weaken the Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder and lead to breakage during use. Place the Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder into a surgical instrument tray. Prepare the Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder for sterilization using a wrapper or rigid sterilization container that is appropriate for the method of steam sterilization.

WARNINGThe central handle of the articulated arm must be open during the sterilization process.

D. TERMINAL STEAM STERILIZATIONAfter following the decontamination and preparation recommendations, the Jarit® Endoscope & Instrument Holder is ready for sterilization. See also, AAMI Standards and Recommended Practice, “Comprehensive Guide to Steam Sterilization and Sterility Assurance in Health Care Facilities,” ANSI/AAMI ST79:2006. AAMI standards recommend that the sterilizer manufacturer’s written instructions for minimum cycle parameters should also be followed.

Medical device manufacturer’s exposure times to sterilization temperature may need to be longer than the minimum indicated by the sterilizer manufacturer but must never be shorter.

Below are the recommended sterilization parameters:
