Decontamination GuidelinesAlgeos Podiatry offers a comprehensive range of infection control equipment and accessories to suit your individual requirements, budgets and available clinic space. Hints & Tips:The following hints and tips have been put together to aid you in choosing the correct infection control equipment to suit your individual requirements. Please refer to any specific guidelines provided by the professional body to which you are a member when making your final decision. • Podiatry instruments should be rinsed then cleaned

with an autoclavable instrument brush prior to them being ultrasonically cleaned.

• Choosing your autoclave:N Type (Non-vacuum): Only suitable for unwrapped,solid instrumentsB Type (Vacuum): Suitable for unwrapped and wrapped instruments, which are solid or lumened.

• It is recommended that autoclaves reach a temperature of 134-137ºC for a minimum of 3 minutes.

• A printer or USB capability is recommended for validity and traceability.

• Distilled water should be used in the reservoir and changed regularly to ensure effective sterilisation is achieved.

• Perforated trays ensure that steam can reach the surface of all instruments. Don’t overfill the autoclave as this will prevent optimum levels of sterilisation occurring.

• Instruments such as nippers, forceps, and scissors should be placed in an open position to ensure sterilisation of the blade surface.

• Routine testing of the autoclave’s performance is required to ensure that correct sterilising conditions are consistently being achieved. A daily, weekly, quarterly and yearly testing schedule is required.

Stretch-2-Fit™ hypoallergenic medical gloves are manufactured from a revolutionary new material that not only make allergic reactions a thing of the past, it also offers unrivalled near-skin feel, vital for many medical practices.

Stretch-2-Fit™ is also EN Certified by the NHS's own test laboratories. Stretch-2-Fit™ is the world's first truly hypoallergenic glove. It has no residual chemicals which are the biggest cause of skin irritation for users, as no chemicals are used in the manufacturing process.

The unique design of Stretch-2-Fit™allows the glove to mould around the hand for a better fit, and due to palms being open to more air, there is less hand sweat. The glove also stretches to the end of the fingers, giving a Latex type feel and dexterity for activities such as picking up and holding surgical instruments.

The glove has been approved by the NHS to EN455, parts 1 2 3 &4. On leakage tests it has passed with a 100% success rate.

In all, Stretch-2-Fit is far better technically than other examination gloves currently available, plus it is has large monetary savings due to the revolutionary manufacturing techniques.
