The OXIVARIO procedure has an
alkaline main wash making it
particularly suitable for the processing
of surgical instruments where existing
procedures are not satisfactory.
It is particularly suitable for instruments
such as those used in high frequency
surgery, orthopaedic surgery as well as
for instruments which have dried out
because of the length of time between
using them and reprocessing them. It is
also suitable for antiseptic
circumstances.
The cleaning process is gentle enough
for instruments used in minimally
invasive surgery, including fibre optics,
where the manufacturer has declared
that they are suitable for processing
with an alkaline cleaning agent.
It is not suitable for anodised
aluminium.
Be aware that items made from alloys
containing titanium such as some
implants, do not always state the
material's compatibility. Processing
such items can result in colour
changes, rendering any coding on
them ineffective. If in doubt please
consult the manufacturer of the item.
The ORTHOVARIO procedure is
suitable for processing aluminium
instruments which are sensitive to
alkalines. It is particularly suitable for
orthopaedic instruments including
motor systems.
Because of its oxidising effect it
must not be used for titanium
implants, and in particular colour
colded ones.
,
Due to the high efficacy of the
Oxivario and Orthovario processes it
is important to lubricate joints and
contact parts on instruments pre
sterilisation. Please refer to the
instrument manufacturer for
guidance.
