Rev.3.0
Hygiene measures when being re-used:
Prior to the wheelchair being re-used, it must be carefully
prepared.
WARNING!
All surfaces which come into contact with the user must
be treated with a disinfection spray.
To do this, you must use a disinfectant from the DGHM
list, e.g. Antifect Liquid (Schülke & Mayr) for rapid alcohol-
based disinfection for medical products and medical
devices, which must be disinfected quickly.
Please take into account the manufacturer's instructions
for the disinfectant you are using.
In general, a complete disinfection cannot be guaranteed
on seams. We therefore recommend that you dispose of
seat and back slings to avoid micro bacterial
contamination with active agents according to § 6
infection protection law.
