How To Clean, Sterilize, Safely Maintain and Use CASTrGARD:

Cleaning & Sterilization

All standard disinfectants, a mild soap and water solution, and mild detergent and damp cloth are safe to use in cleaning the PIVotARM. Do not immerse in cleaning solvent as this will damage the friction bushing.

CAUTION: Do not autoclave. If necessary, use a sterilization protocol that complies with your facility’s infection control and risk management policies for operating room tables and bed rails.

Maintenance & Storage

Periodically inspect the device to ensure that all bolts are securely tightened.

A complete inspection of each PIVotARM is recommended prior to placing the devices back into service. Replace any PIVotARM that is damaged, broken or does not function properly.

Important Safety Issues

Operator must verify safe operation and function of PIVotARM. The friction latch should allow movement of the arm. The PIVotARM should not move with changes in position of the bed. Verify that all objects suspended from the PIVotARM do not contact or injure the patient.
