Giải thích
Between patients the machine surfaces, cables, and reusable components are wiped with a facility-approved disinfectant, wires are inspected for cracks and gently uncoiled, and supplies are restocked so the unit is ready. Immersing a patient cable damages the connectors and creates an electrical hazard. Wrapping wires tightly breaks the internal conductors and causes artifact, and waiting for visible soil ignores unseen contamination.
