Issue
The esophageal/rectal/skin temperature probe's instructions for use, (IFU), contain inadequate instructions related to the cleaning and disinfection process for the reusable probes. The IFU instructs the user to clean the product with disinfecting agents but does not specifically instruct the user to first clean with an enzymatic solution (detergent) before disinfecting or sterilizing. Cleaning the probes with a detergent allows for the physical removal of soil and other contaminants.
