Ultrasound Equipment Cleaning and Disinfection Avoidance Statement
To avoid potential damage to the equipment, please avoid these practices:
-
Do not use thinners, benzene, ethanol, methanol, scouring agents, or other strong solvents; they will damage the cabinet or display panel. Isopropyl alcohol should not be used without instructions.
-
Do not steam sterilize or high-temperature sterilize equipment components.
-
Do not scratch or press the panel with sharp objects (e.g., pencils or pens), as this may damage the panel.
-
The cleaning and disinfection temperature should not exceed 60°C.
Scope of Ultrasound Equipment Cleaning and Disinfection
Host equipment:
✅Clean and disinfect the following areas that may experience cross-contamination daily:
-
Operation panel and main display and touch panel
-
Keyboard and monitor frame
-
Probe holder
-
Machine housing, front and rear handles, and imaging switch
✅Clean and disinfect the following components after each patient:
-
Probe
-
Puncture stand (if applicable)
In addition, system-related areas found to be significantly contaminated in the previous examination should be cleaned and disinfected.
Recommended Disinfectants for Ultrasound Equipment Cleaners

Recommended Disinfectants:
-
Isopropyl alcohol approximately 70%
-
Disposable sterilizing cloth: Kava cloth (Ingredients: Quaternary ammonium compound + isopropyl alcohol)
-
Quaternary ammonium compound + Polyhexamethylene guanidine hydrochloride SONO ultrasound wipes (Ingredients: Quaternary ammonium compound)
-
3% hydrogen peroxide; 10% bleach solution (10% bleach, 90% water)
-
75% ethanol solution is used for soaking, scrubbing, and disinfection, primarily for hand skin disinfection.
-
70% isopropyl alcohol solution is used for soaking, scrubbing, and disinfecting medical equipment and medical facilities.
To ensure effective disinfection, the machine surface must be kept clean!
Ultrasound Equipment Cleaning and Disinfection Operating Procedures
Host equipment:
-
The host equipment should be cleaned regularly. After turning off the power, use a soft damp cloth to wipe the display, touch screen, operation panel, probe bracket, and machine housing.
-
If the machine surface has blood stains, oil stains, or other dirt, a dust-free soft cloth can be used to wipe with a small amount of isopropyl alcohol. When wiping, be careful not to let the liquid flow into the gaps of the display or operation panel/touch screen. Finally, wipe it dry with a dry cloth.
-
Remove the air filter at least every two weeks, clean it with a vacuum cleaner, or rinse it with clean water, dry it, and then reinstall it in the machine.
-
Wet a sterile cloth with a liquid disinfectant, or apply disinfectant wipes, to moisten the machine surface. Do not press hard on the wipes, to prevent liquid from entering the gaps and crevices of the console.
-
Keep the surface moist for the applicable contact time. If the surface does not remain moist throughout the contact time, apply additional disinfectant as needed to extend the wetting time.
-
After the contact time is up, clean up excess liquid with a dry sterile cloth. To avoid disinfectant accumulation, or to remove disinfectants that may irritate the skin, a sterile damp cloth can be used for the cleaning step.
-
To avoid disinfectant accumulation, or to remove disinfectants that may irritate the skin, a sterile damp cloth can be used for the cleaning step.
-
Flat ultrasound screens can be wiped with medical isopropyl alcohol disinfecting wipes with a concentration of no more than 70%.
-
Plasma sterilizers with sufficient power to cover the environment can be selected for department sterilization.
-
When using ultraviolet environmental disinfection, the probe should be stored in a box and the equipment should be covered with velvet.
