F.) After procedure, remove pen core from tip and place in holding well for defrosting. After defrosting, proceed
to clean and reprocess tip according to Step 9 below.
G.) Reservoir Tube should be checked daily and filled as needed. (Fill to maximum line.)
H.) Pen Cores should be rotated at the end of each day. Rotate from holding wells to chilling wells.
(Each holding pen core should be wiped dry and dipped before placing it into a chilling well)
I.) If CryoPen
®
Pen Cores become stuck in chilling wells turn unit OFF and allow unit to defrost.
(approximately 8 hours) Wells and pen cores should be wiped dry using the supplied cotton towel and
swabs. (See separate Instructions for Maintenance and Power Outage).
J.) The system is designed to remain on. Turning the unit on and off will cause the pen cores in the chilling
wells to defrost resulting in water contamination of the reservoir solution. In this instance, chilling wells
have to be cleaned and a return to initial setup procedures will be necessary. Unit should be placed in a well-
ventilated and clean environment for maximum efficiency.
Warning: Pen Cores are extremely cold, accidental contact with skin may cause frostbite.
9. Instructions for Cleaning & Reprocessing CryoPen Reusable and Sterilizable tips: (for General/Dermatology use)
A. Thoroughly clean all surfaces of the CryoPen tip to remove blood and particles.
1.) Wear heavy-duty rubber gloves, a plastic apron, eye protection, and mask during cleaning as needed.
2.) Soak the instruments in normal tap water containing a detergent such as Enzol
®
, according to manufacturer’s
instructions.
3.) Scrub instruments as necessary to completely remove all foreign material using a soft brush or old
toothbrush, detergent, and water. Hold items under the surface of the water while scrubbing and cleaning to
avoid splashing. Do not attempt to disassemble the tip. Be sure to brush where organic material can collect and
stick.
4.) Flush through the inside of the tip.
5.) Rinse items thoroughly with clean water to remove all detergent. Any detergent left on the items can reduce
the effectiveness of further processing.
6.) Inspect items to confirm that they are clean and free of visible debris.
7.) Allow items to air dry or dry them with a clean towel if chemical disinfection is going to be used. This is to
avoid diluting the chemical solutions used after cleaning. Items that will be processed in an autoclave do not
need to be dried.
B-1. If tip has come into contact with broken skin or a mucous membrane perform one of the following (see Table 1):
1.) Place in cold soak high level disinfectant/sterilant fluid (e.g. glutaraldehyde based solutions) and follow
manufacturer’s instructions.
2.) Steam sterilize (autoclave) by gravity with a cycle temperature of 270 degrees Fahrenheit @ 20-30psi for 15
minutes. Allow 20 minutes to dry.
