Abstract: A method for dynamic dosing of disinfectant solution in a medical device reprocessing system includes calculating a volume of an initial dose of concentrated disinfectant solution for dilution to make a first in-use disinfectant solution. The initial dose of concentrated disinfectant solution is diluted with diluting fluid to make the first in-use disinfectant solution comprising a target concentration of disinfectant agent. The first in-use disinfectant solution is applied to a medical device. A concentration of the disinfectant agent in the first in-use disinfectant solution is then calculated. The actual concentration of the disinfectant agent in the concentrated disinfectant solution is then calculated based upon the concentration of disinfectant agent in the first in-use disinfectant solution. It is then determined whether a volume of a second dose of concentrated disinfectant solution is increased or about the same as the volume of the initial dose to make a second in-use disinfectant solution.

Abstract: An instrument reprocessor is disclosed. The instrument reprocessor includes a basin having a rim located in an inclined plane forming an acute angle with respect to a horizontal plane. At least one nozzle is disposed in a plane substantially parallel to the inclined plane. The at least one nozzle is configured to discharge a stream into the basin in a direction substantially parallel to the inclined plane. A lid assembly is also disclosed. The lid assembly may cover the basin in a close configuration.

Abstract: A safety guard adapted for use with a Huber needle assembly that includes a main body, a pair of butterfly wings extending outwardly from the main body and a needle.

Abstract: A needle safety guard for use with a Huber needle assembly having a body portion and a needle including an elongated body having an elongated interior cavity, the interior cavity being defined by opposed front and rear interior surfaces of the elongated body, the elongated body having a slot opening into the interior cavity and extending substantially between end portions of the elongated body; wherein the slot of the elongated body is sized and shaped to closely and slidingly engage the Huber needle body portion and the cavity is sufficiently long to fully receive the needle therein upon sliding action of the body portion along the elongated body slot from one end portion toward another; and a stop mechanism which engages the body portion to retain the needle within the cavity.
