Hello Colleague,
In my department we follow the attached ASUM-ACIPC guidelines for infection control (attached).
If the patient's scrotal skin is intact, on scan completion we wipe the probe with a TB Oxivir wipe (as we do with all examinations) only.
We only high level disinfect the probe if the scrotal skin is broken, or the probe comes directly in contact with bodily fluids.
Hope this helps,
Marilyn Zelesco
