Manual Washer-disinfector for transoesophageal probes
Wash your TEE probe in complete safety
• Patient security:
The washer automatically regulates the duration and temperature of the wash .
The probe is cleaned and disinfected and the reprocessing is documented with a traceability ticket.
• Probe security:
The length of time to which the probe is exposed to detergents and disinfectants is controlled. A continuous electric isolation test is performed during the process to control TEE leakage.
Your TEE probe is preserved.
• Technician security:
Technicians have no need to handle toxic products or irritants and therefore work under improved conditions.
The operator is only called to activate the detergent or disinfectant charge and verify the correct quantity.
HYGIETRONIC presents a semi-automatic washer-disinfector for transoesophagic probes.
SDM 50 is a brand new washer dedicated to TEE probes.
Until now, probes have generally been washed and disinfected manually and with no real traceability. HYGIETRONIC’s washer will therefore revolutionise the reprocessing of this echocardiography probe.
The product is founded on 3 pillars:
Patient security
A complete process consists of a detergent phase and a disinfection phase. The effectiveness of the disinfection phase is determined by the concentration, exposure time, and contact temperature.
The semi-automatic washer performs a wash with a detergent, the disinfection phase uses peracetic acid (Glutaraldehyde on request).
A robot controls the different phases and ensures an optimum washing and disinfecting process.
SDM 50 respects the time, concentration, and temperature of washing and disinfection. The probe is clean and disinfected, and the system provides cycle traceability thanks to an integrated printer.
Installation requires only a power source, cold and hot water and a connection to a drain.
SD 50 is equipped with 4 wheels and can easily be moved. Water quality is controlled by a supplied filtration kit.
The probe is introduced into the cylinder and the connector is placed on the electric control module.
The washing/ disinfecting cycle is selected on the control board and the cycle is launched automatically.
Pre washing and washing phases guarantee the probe’s detergence.
The disinfection phase uses peracetic acid to reach a high level of disinfection.
The cycle is completed in 38 minutes, the probe can be reused immediately.
In some countries aldehydes are prohibited because of mutagen toxicity and biofilm generation however SD 50 has also been validated with Glutaraldehyde in case of TEE incompatibility or specific recommendations
SD 50 is CE MDD Class I and has been validated following the ISO 15883-4 Standard
Probe security
The probe's exposure time to the detergent and the disinfectant is strictly controlled.
The Probe handle and its connector can not be accidentally immersed in the bath.
Once the cycle has been completed the probe can remain in the cylinder with no risk.
A continuous electric isolation test is performed during the process to control TEE insertion tube leakage.
The probe is protected.
Technician security
Once the detergent and disinfectant bottles are installed in the washer, the operators no longer handle the chemicals.
The products used are flushed down the drain at the end of each cycle (Single Wash). The detergent and peracetic acid used are biodegradable compounds that do not generate toxic residues.
Operators work in better conditions while reducing the risks of exposure to or contact with chemicals.
The SDM 50 is also available in a Multi-Wash version, where the disinfectant product is used multiple times and emptying the cylinder refills the disinfectant container. The SDM 50 can also be offered for use with a glutaraldehyde-based disinfectant.
