CLEANING & DECONTAMINATION
Bendini Tracking System
®
To clean the Camera, proceed as follows:
1. Remove dust from each illuminator filter and lens, using a photographic lens duster
(brush). Gently wipe the surface in one direction only, by pulling the brush across the
surface.
2. Gently wipe the illuminator filters and lenses with disinfectant wipes containing 70%
isopropanol. Continue cleaning the remainder of the Camera, taking care not to wipe
debris from the Camera case onto the illuminator filters or lenses. Avoid prolonged
contact between the wipes and the Camera.
3. Clean the illuminator filters and lenses, using a commercial lens cleaning solution
formulated for multi-coated lenses (for example, AR66) and a clean knitted microfiber
optical cleaning cloth (for example, Hitecloth). Avoid prolonged contact between the
lens cleaner and the illuminator filters and lenses.
Bendini Instruments
All instruments must first be thoroughly cleaned using the following validated methods
before sterilization and introduction into a sterile surgical field. Contaminated instruments
should be wiped clean of visible soil at the point of use, prior to transfer for full processing.
Cleaning instructions for the Bendini Spinal Rod Bender and Pointer instruments are as
follows:
1. Prior to soaking the instruments in an enzymatic cleaning solution, rinse the
instruments under cool running tap water and wipe off any residual soil or debris with
a disposable towel. Ensure to flush out any lumens, cracks or crevices while rinsing
under running cool tap water.
2. Prepare an enzymatic cleaning solution, such as MetriZyme
recommendations using warm tap water. Place the instruments in the solution in the
open position (as appropriate) and allow to soak for a minimum of 50 seconds. While
soaking, actuate the instruments through a full range of motion (as appropriate for the
specific instrument) to allow complete penetration of the cleaning solution.
3. After the 50 seconds soak time, remove the instruments and wipe any soil or debris
using a disposable towel. Then, place the instruments into a fresh batch of an
enzymatic cleaning solution using warm tap water. Brush the entire surface of the
instrument with a soft bristled brush. Actuate the instruments through a full range
of motion while brushing and ensure to brush all hard to reach areas. Use a sterile
syringe and lumen brush to clean hard to reach areas and flush each end of the
instruments with a minimum of 60 mL.
4. Remove the instruments from the detergent and rinse by agitating and actuating in
RO/DI water for a minimum of 30 seconds. Flush all hard to reach areas with a sterile
syringe at each end of the instrument with a minimum of 60 mL.
5. Use a low foaming, neutral pH, phosphate-free cleaning solution and prepare per
manufacturer's recommendations using warm tap water in a sonication unit. Allow
the instruments to sonicate for 10 minutes. Instruments should be properly placed
to maximize cleaning and to avoid damage or dislodgement of instruments and
components.
