Question
I am using your pulse oximeter in my sleep research lab at the VA medical center in Detroit, and need to know your recommendations for cleaning the part that attaches to the patients ear in between each patient. Please forward me your specifications for cleaning this instrument.Lauren Marquette

Answer

Dear Ms. Marquette:

A seventy percent alcohol saturated solution gauze pad may be used for cleaning of the probes in the place of a medical grade alcohol cleanser when wiping the probe to remove debris and other foreign material. Repeat the same exercise as many times as possible but each time making sure that you use a gauze pad soaked in medical solution.

If you by any chance notice that there is blood or any other body fluids acquired from the contact finger inside the oximeter, you are advised to soak it in the solution for a period not exceeding ten minutes. This will go a long way in making sure that the clogged material will be disinfected and loosened for easier cleaning. It also prevents against disease outbreaks emanating from such dirt.
