Belimed, announced today that their WD 290 washer/disinfector, together with a new specialty robotic rack has been confirmed acceptable for use in the Automated cleaning process for Intuitive Surgical‘s EndoWrist surgical instruments designed for use with the da Vinci Xi Surgical System. Belimed Inc., part of the Belimed Group, a world leader in cleaning and sterile processing systems and solutions in health care and life sciences, has a 40-year plus commitment to providing continuous improvements and infection control solutions within sterile processing departments worldwide.
Belimeds popular WD 290, together with a new dedicated Xi robotic rack, can now be used with the labor-saving Automated cleaning/disinfection process for Intuitive Surgical‘s da Vinci Xi series EndoWrist surgical instruments and accessories. Only a handful of washer/disinfectors currently on the market are listed as compatible in Intuitives Reprocessing Instructions Appendices.
The WD 290 with Xi rack offers full Automated wash, rinse, decontaminate, and dry functions, saving clinician time and increasing facility throughput over purely manual-based cleaning techniques. Due to its pass-through design, the WD 290 also follows standardized SPD workflows, delivering decontaminated instruments straight to the clean-side without the need for special dirty-side handling or the potential for re-contamination.
Please refer to the latest Intuitive Surgical reprocessing instructions for detailed descriptions of the procedures for reprocessing EndoWrist instruments and accessories designed for use with Intuitive Surgicals da Vinci Surgical Systems.
When reprocessing Intuitive Surgical instruments, it is important that the healthcare facility follow all directions in the latest Intuitive Surgical Reprocessing Instructions as well as any instrument specific instructions and supplements that may come with individual instruments.
