Cleaning the Monitor
According to the CDC Guideline for Disinfection and Sterilization in Healthcare
Facilities, 2008, patient monitoring equipment is considered a non-critical device.
A non-critical device is that whose surfaces only contact intact skin and do not
penetrate it. Therefore, it is acceptable to use intermediate or low-level disinfection
for non-critical devices depending on the nature and extent of contamination.
Devices in contact with intact patient skin can usually be effectively prepared for
safe reuse by cleaning and low level disinfection. It is also important to follow your
institution's policies and guidelines for infection prevention and control.
