Hello, does anyone know of an exercise heart rate monitor for children that can be used to ascertain their fitness level? I am looking for something that can be easily cleaned.
Currently the service is looking at strap-on chest monitors made of a stretchy fabric material, which would in the very least will require machine washing. Something I am very reluctant to add to my list of risks at this stage.
If anyone can suggest a suitable product, could you please inbox me? Thankyou
Kind Regards,

Hi Donna,
Such information should be sourced directly from the medical product/device manufacturer/s as they are required by TGA to provide recommended instructions for use(IFU) which must include cleaning instructions and be inclusive of the recommended cleaning/disinfecting agents.
Healthcare facilities should:
Identify and follow the device manufacturers cleaning and decontamination instructions as failure may be considered off-label use
Ensure any detergents and/or disinfectants used are compatible with the device manufacturers instructions for use (IFU)
Ensure staff are training in the appropriate use of the cleaning and disinfection agents and
If the manufacturers instructions for use (IFU) are inadequate, report to the Australian Government, Therapeutics Goods Administration (TGA), Medical Device Incident Reporting & Investigation Scheme (IRIS) https://www.tga.gov.au/medical-device-incident-reporting-investigation-scheme-iris and the manufacturer.
Hope this is helpful.
Regards
