How to clean and disinfect against COVID-19 when using FREY diagnostic devices
How to disinfect diagnostic devices against COVID-19? Personal protective equipment and frequent hand hygiene are not enough today to effectively limit the spread of the virus. Therefore FREY team has prepared special guidelines on how to effectively and safely for personnel clean devices manufactured by FREY.
Between each patient examination, all patient and clinician interface surfaces of FREY devices, excluding AP Perimeter’s bowl, should be cleaned and disinfected using isopropyl alcohol ≥ 70% solution (IPA). We recommend wearing disposable gloves at all times to clean and disinfect.
