Instruments should be stored in an appropriate microsurgical instrument tray. During surgery, care should be taken not to touch the tips of the instruments either with gloves, the trolley cover or other instruments as this might lead to damage or blunting. When not in actual use, the instruments should be returned to the storage tray where they are protected.
Immediately, after use, all instruments in the surgical tray should be wiped clean with a sterile, fibre free, instrument wipe moistened in demineralised/sterile water. Cannula, suction tubes and other instruments with a lumen should be flushed through immediately after use. Demineralised/sterile water used for flushing should be cool to avoid coagulation of proteinaceous material. Diamond Knives require special care
At the end of surgery, all instruments in the surgical tray should be wiped clean immediately with a fibre free instrument wipe moistened in demineralised/sterile water. All cannulated instruments must be ultrasonically flushed or brushed through with an appropriate cleaning brush. Ultrasonic cleaning for 5 – 10 minutes with a neutral pH ultrasonic cleaning solution is recommended for thorough cleaning of almost all ophthalmic instruments. To prevent ion transfer, instruments should be sorted according to their material and type. Titanium and stainless steel should not be mixed in the same ultrasonic cleaning cycle. Instruments must be completely free of moisture before sterilisation.
Instruments should be secured in specially designed microsurgical trays. It is extremely important that the instruments are held securely and do not touch one another which might result in damage. Ensure that cutting edges are protected. Please note that descriptions of trays often state the number of instruments that they can hold, this is a recommendation only as instruments come in a variety of sizes and shapes and it is up to the individual to ensure that the tray is not overcrowded. Wrap trays using an appropriate method. Ensure instruments are dry before storage, and stored in a dry, clean condition.
Applying a small amount of surgical grade lubrication oil to hinges, joints and moving parts will reduce wear and protect your instruments.
