ADC(Pyxis) COVID-19 Recommondation requests

Hi,
In regards to the current COVID situation, what are various sites doing for ADC precautions and cleaning in your high contact rooms such as trauma, OR, etc. where patient care and the machine are in the same room?

Currently, their is concern that there isn't resource for full decontamination and risk of having to dispose of all contents. Also thoughts of moving machines out of these rooms.

Thanks for the help and support.
