    AbstractThe adequacy of a currently recommended protocol for disinfecting CPR manikins was investigated. Known quantities of Herpes simplex type 1 virus were applied to various sites on both adult and infant manikin heads, exposed to disinfectant under simulated classroom conditions, and then assayed for infectious virus. Results indicate that the disinfecting protocol and disinfectant are adequate for inactivating herpesvirus on CPR manikins, but that care must be exercised to ensure thorough cleaning.
