    Hi All,

    Phillips recommends the use of T-spray 11 disinfectant cleaner on their Phillips ultrasound machine as it is one of the products approved for use by the manufacturer on that equipment. Is anyone else using this? MSDS says it’s an ammonium chloride ( 4 types).

    Hi Rita,

    When you say ultrasound machine you do mean just the machine and/or
    non-critical ultrasound transducers?

    Only instrument grade, high level chemical disinfectants, entered onto the
    Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods [ARTG] can be used to disinfect
    semi-critical items such as intra-cavity [pelvic / rectal] ultrasound
    probes.

    Hi Rita

    As noted by Terry, you can only use T-spray on surfaces that are not endocavity transducers (semi-critical medical devices). The TGA has a warning about following manufacturers guidelines, as they may not meet Australian requirements:
