Care and Maintenance
COVER
Always keep the cushion cover as clean as is practicable. The material is waterproof and
vapour permeable.
l Inspect top cover for signs of damage or wear which could result in the contamination
of the interior, e.g. tears, holes, damage to seams or zips, underside staining, etc. The
frequency of these checks should be at each decontamination process, i.e. between
patients or patient occupancy (or weekly for longer term patients).
l Care should be taken to avoid puncturing cover with objects such as needles, scalpels, pat
slides, acrylic nails, etc.
l The cover may be removed and cleaned in accordance with The Revised Healthcare
Cleaning Manual June 2009 subject to the following action: Following the use of a
detergent and or disinfectant solution the cushion cover should be rinsed with clean
water using a clean cloth and allowed to dry.
l Frequent or prolonged exposure to high concentrations of aggressive disinfectant solutions
will reduce the useful life of the cushion cover.
l Where high concentration disinfectants e.g. > 10,000ppm chlorine releasing agent
(e.g. Haztab or bleach) or combined cleaning/chlorine releasing agent (e.g. Chlorcleam,
Actichlor) and detergent solutions are used to remove blood or other body uids, cushions
should be thoroughly rinsed with clean water to remove any residues. This will help prevent
any possible long term compatibility issues associated with disinfectant residues.*
Page 8
7
l Alternatively disinfection may be achieved by laundering the cover at temperatures not
exceeding 650C for 10 minutes or 730C for 3 minutes which may include a chlorine rinse.
l Do not use abrasive cleaners, phenol disinfectants, solvents or alcohol-based cleansers,
e.g. Dettol, Phenicol, Hibiscrub, Clearsol, Stericol, Hycoline, as these may destroy the
cover materials.
l Do not iron.
l Ensure that the cushion is thoroughly dried before placing in storage.
INTERIOR COMPONENTS
l Check air bellows and cushion interior for signs of damage or contamination, e.g.
staining or evidence of fluid ingress. The frequency of these checks should be at
each decontamination process, i.e. between patients or patient occupancy (or weekly
for longer term patients)
l Care should be taken to avoid puncturing air bellows with objects such as needles,
scalpels, pat slides, acrylic nails, etc.
l The individual bellows strips can also be wiped clean with a mild antiseptic solution*.
l All cushion components are replaceable and can be obtained easily from Talley.
l Do not immerse the cushion in water. The interior components of the cushion (base,
foam and bellows) are wipe clean only.
POWER UNIT
Always disconnect the power unit from the power adapter and the power adapter from the
power source before carrying out maintenance, repairs, servicing or cleaning. Check all
electrical connections and power lead for signs of excessive wear. The power unit / power
adapter can be wiped down with detergent or disinfectant solution or wipe*. Do not use
solvents. Unsuitable for sterilisation. Dispose of the power unit / power adapter in accordance
with the local regulations including WEEE requirements. The power unit / power adapter
should be cleaned between patient use as a minimum.
* In line with the MHRA Medical Device Alert (MDA/2013/019), Talley advises customers to
use pH neutral, high level disinfectant cleaning products to sanitise reusable medical devices
to prevent damage to materials and the degradation of plastic surfaces after prolonged
