their institution’s infection control procedures when han-

dling blood glucose testing equipment.

If your facility chooses to disinfect the Accu-Chek

Inform II system, use the following procedures.

Before using a disinfectant solution on the meter, base

unit, or code key reader, refer to the product labeling for

required contact time for disinfecting and to ensure that

the active ingredients are acceptable for use. Prepare all

disinfection solutions per the manufacturer's product

labeling. Acceptable active ingredients for disinfecting

water (bleach)

■ ammonium chloride (up to 0.25 % of each

quaternary ammonium compound) with isopropyl

alcohol (up to 55 %)

■ 0.05 % solution of a phenol compound in water

Use of disinfectants containing other active ingredients

could result in damage to the meter, base unit, or code

key reader.

Acceptable ingredients of disinfectants for the accessory

box are:

■ 0.625 % (or less) solution of sodium hypochlorite in

water (bleach)

Use of disinfectants containing other active ingredients
