This Trophon has a LOW CYCLE COUNTS of under 1500. The GE Healthcare(USA/Canada) distributed, Australian made sterilizers is in stock and ready to go. It appears to be in good working condition without apparent software, hardware or cosmetic issues. It heat ups, open ups, light ups, passes self-tests and purges. It has not been tested with a cartridge installed. The installed software is 1.5.1_10 and the production dates is 2012.
According to the record Trophon has seen little use. It has been on the shelf here for almost 2 years awaiting listing. It sat in the original owner's surplus storage area for at least a year before that. The lifetime cycle count on the unit will be than 500 cycles each based on its average annual cycles of less than 200.
2012 S/N 19790-016 was last PMed in December 2018. At that time it had a total cycle count of 1254
According to GE this FDA / Health Canada approved device:
High level disinfection (HLD) is defined as the complete elimination of all microorganisms in or on an instrument, except for small numbers of bacterial spores. Over 1,000 probes are OEM-approved for use with Trophon EPR, and the process requires no soaking-it exposes probes to a very low amount of hydrogen peroxide mist and disinfects both the probe and the handle. Each High-Level Disinfection cycle is validated by sophisticated sensor technology and the Chemical Indicator, for clinical validation that helps ensure compliance with leading healthcare recommendations.
The Trophon EPR disinfection process is fast and simple. Disinfection takes place in an automated, closed system and uses a vaporized hydrogen peroxide solution and is complete in 7 minutes. Automated, easy-to-use High-Level Disinfection with one-touch operation requires fewer manual steps (compared to other methods of probe reprocessing), so you can do other things while the transducer is in the system. With the self-contained and automated High-Level Disinfection process, the disinfectant cartridge remains sealed until inside the system, so there's no need for special ventilation, and may reduce requirements for Personal Protective Equipment. The compact design means it can be located at the point of care, helping to improve patient workflow, while the fully enclosed system helps protect both patients and staff by limiting exposure to harmful disinfectant chemicals. As a point of care solution, it can help reduce the need to transport probes between the ultrasound suite and separate cleaning rooms.
Appropriate reprocessing of ultrasound probes between patients is critical to reduce the risk of HPV transmission. Recent research shows disinfectants commonly used on ultrasound probes do not kill natural, infectious high-risk HPV(2). Given the prevalence of HPV, the potential for HPV transmission in the healthcare setting and the virus's links to cancer, these research developments are of concern.
