Frequently asked questions
Are these probe covers safe for patients with allergies?
Yes, these covers are entirely latex-free. They are specifically manufactured without natural rubber latex, making them a safe and reliable option for both patients and clinical staff who may have sensitivities.
Do these covers help maintain clinical hygiene standards?
Absolutely. These are designed as single-use, disposable sleeves. By using a fresh cover for every reading, you effectively minimize the risk of cross-contamination between patients, which is essential for maintaining a sterile diagnostic environment.
Are these materials free of harmful plasticizers?
Yes, these probe covers are DEHP-free. We prioritize patient safety by ensuring that no DEHP is used in the construction of these diagnostic accessories.
What is the expected durability of the material?
The covers are crafted from a high-quality combination of film and paper. This material blend is engineered to be durable enough to maintain precise temperature measurement accuracy while remaining thin enough to ensure patient comfort during ear canal insertion.
Are these compatible with standard infrared thermometers?
These covers are specifically engineered for compatibility with tympanic (ear) thermometers. They are designed to fit snugly onto the thermometer probe to ensure consistent and accurate readings.
How should these be stored in a clinical setting?
These covers come in a professional, molded tray system within the box. This packaging is designed for easy extraction, making them ideal for high-paced clinical environments like urgent care centers or hospitals where speed and accessibility are critical.
Are these covers considered sterile?
No, these specific probe covers are non-sterile. They are intended for use in general clinical practices for routine temperature monitoring where non-sterile diagnostic accessories are required.
How many covers are provided in a single order?
Each individual box contains 96 disposable probe covers. For larger facilities, these are also available in bulk, with 22 boxes per case.
Are these compliant with government trade standards?
Yes, these McKesson LUMEON probe covers are TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant, ensuring they meet the necessary standards for use in government and federally-funded healthcare facilities.
Can these be reused between readings?
No, these are strictly for single-use only. Reusing a probe cover can compromise the accuracy of the reading and significantly increase the risk of spreading bacteria between patients.
