Don’t let the wrong wipe cost you thousands of dollars! Most disinfectant wipes used in today’s hospitals, clinics, and imaging centers cause damage to ultrasound equipment. Unbeknownst to many medical staff, these machines and transducers cannot be cleaned in the same wayas X-ray machines, CT and MRI units.
Using the wrong disinfectant wipe causes serious damage including:
• Delaminated transducer heads
• Failure of leakage tests
• Risk of patient shock
• Transducer and cable yellowing and cracking
• Degradation of the machine’s professional look
• Lower trade-in value
