CAUTION
• Inspect for damage before using.
• It is imperative that the surgeon and operating theater staff are
fully conversant with the appropriate surgical technique for the
surgical instruments.
• Inspect for damage prior to use. Replace a damaged, worn or
bent instrument. Do not attempt to straighten, sharpen or repair.
• Do not use a DePuy Mitek reusable instrument for any purpose
other than its intended use as that may result in damage to
the instrument.
• Follow the instructions and warnings issued by the
suppliers of any cleaning and disinfection agents and
equipment used.
Do not exceed 137ºC during sterilization.
•
• Highly alkaline conditions can damage products with
aluminum parts.
• Complex devices, such as those with tubes, hinges, retractable
features, mated surfaces, and textured surface finishes,
require special attention during cleaning. Manual pre-cleaning
of such device features is required before automated
cleaning processing.
• Avoid exposing instruments to hypochlorite solutions, as these
will promote corrosion.
• Clean delicate instruments separately from other instruments.
• Repeated processing has minimal effects on instrument life
and function.
• End of useful instrument life is generally determined by wear
or damage from handling or surgical use. Inspect instruments
between uses to verify proper functioning. (See "Inspection and
Functional Testing" instructions below.)
