Surgical instrument sanitizer apparatus, system, and method of use

摘要

A cleaning system includes a surgical tool assembly having a longitudinal shaft and a sleeve surrounding the longitudinal shaft. The system includes an injector head and body that receive the assembly. The head has an inlet coupling that fluidly couples to a pressurized fluid source. The body couples to the head to house the assembly between the head and the body. The body has an outlet coupling to fluidly couple to a vacuum source. When the assembly is housed between the head and the body, at least one fluid pathway is formed between the inlet coupling, the head, the shaft and the sleeve, the body, and the outlet coupling. A positive pressure fluid source is coupled to the inlet coupling and a vacuum source is connected to the outlet coupling to establish a pressure differential across the fluid pathway sufficient to draw the fluid therethrough.
