Abstract: A method for documenting a reprocessing of a reusable medical device. The reusable device comprising at least one temperature sensor configured to provide temperature data representing a temperature of the medical device, a real time clock (RTC) configured to provide timestamps and one or more processors including hardware configured to process the temperature data and the timestamps. The method includes: monitoring the temperature of the medical device during the reprocessing; and a) upon detecting the temperature exceeding a first predefined threshold, the one or more processors receiving and saving a first current timestamp provided by the RTC, and setting the one or more processors into a low-power mode, and b) upon detecting the temperature falling below a second predefined threshold, setting the one or more processors into an active mode, and the one or more processors receiving and saving a second current timestamp provided by the RTC.

Abstract: An Albarran module, a drive body, and a method for bracing a pull wire, by which method at least one pull wire can be braced in a simple and reliable manner by a tensioning means for bracing the at least one pull wire is connectable to a drive body of the Albarran module parallel to a longitudinal axis of a shaft. The Albarran module has an Albarran lever at a distal end of a shaft. The Albarran lever is actuatable via a toggle on a main body of the Albarran module. For this purpose, the lever is coupled mechanically to the toggle by pull wires along the shaft. In known Albarran modules, the fitting and bracing of these pull wires proves complicated and laborious.
