ucts
Reusable products must be reprocessed, oth-
erwise there is an increased risk of infection.
– Follow the infection prevention policies
and reprocessing regulations of the health-
care facility.
– Follow the national infection prevention
policies and reprocessing regulations.
– Use validated procedures for reprocessing.
– Reprocess reusable products after every
use.
– Follow the manufacturer's instructions for
cleaning agents, disinfectants, and repro-
cessing devices.
WARNING
Risk due to reuse of disposable third-party ac-
cessories
Reuse, reprocessing, or sterilization of con-
nected third-party accessories for single use

Signs of wear, e.g., cracks, deformation, discolor-
ation, or peeling, may occur with reprocessed prod-
ucts.

if necessary.

Classifications for reprocessing

Classification of medical devices
The classification depends on the intended use of
the medical device. The risk of infection transmission
through the application of the product to the patient
without proper reprocessing is the basis of the
Spaulding classification.
Classification Explanation
Non-critical Components that come into con-
tact only with skin that is intact
Semi-critical Components that carry breath-
ing gas or come into contact with
mucous membranes or patho-
logically altered skin
Critical Components that penetrate skin
or mucous membranes or come
into contact with blood
Classification of device-specific components
The following classification is a recommendation
from Dräger.
Non-critical
– Device surface
– USB cable
