Frequently Asked Questions

What devices can be reprocessed with Revital-Ox RESERT?

Revital-Ox is FDA-cleared for high-level disinfection of reusable semi-critical medical devices including ultrasound transducers, flexible endoscopes, laryngoscope blades, and other heat-sensitive instruments that contact mucous membranes or intact skin.

How does Revital-Ox compare to glutaraldehyde?

Revital-Ox achieves HLD in 8 minutes vs 20–45 minutes for glutaraldehyde, requires no special ventilation, produces no toxic fumes, needs only one water rinse vs three, and is biodegradable. Staff sensitization is not a risk with Revital-Ox.

Is Revital-Ox compatible with GE, Philips, and Siemens ultrasound probes?

Yes. Revital-Ox RESERT has been compatibility-tested by major ultrasound OEMs and approved in reprocessing IFUs for most GE Healthcare, Philips, Siemens Healthineers, and Mindray systems. Always verify against your specific model's current IFU.

Why do I need R60 test strips?

STERIS protocol and accreditation standards (TJC, AAAHC, DNV GL) require MRC verification before each use cycle. PCC053/PCC054 are the only STERIS-approved strips for Revital-Ox RESERT. Skipping the test is a compliance failure.

Is SONO an authorized STERIS distributor?
