Our case studies and publications provide an inside look at how our products and solutions have been used to meet diverse hospital needs.
Healthcare Associated Infections (HAIs) are an enormous problem for patients and acute healthcare facilities. To reduce HAIs, many hospitals are employing innovative technology to supplement manual cleaning practices in their quest to combat pathogens in their facility. Whole room fogging technology and UVC light technology are two technologies being used in today’s healthcare environments.
Healthcare Associated Infections (HAIs) are a huge problem for patients and acute healthcare facilities. The impact of HAIs is detrimental to patient outcomes and increases the cost of provider care. In hospitals alone, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimate HAIs account for 1.7 million infections and more than 98,000 deaths each year.1 Approximately $45 billion in direct hospital costs are associated annually for the treatment of HAIs.2 Hospital environment, health care staff, visitors and patient medical conditions are contributing factors to the development of HAIs.
Assess the effectiveness of a whole-room, no-touch disinfection system in conjunction with manual cleaning protocols in reducing bacterial contamination on healthcare surfaces.
In this retrospective cohort study, we used a real-time location system to track the movement of hospital beds in 2 academic hospitals to determine whether residing in a hospital bed that previously held an occupant with Clostridioides difficile increases the risk of hospital-onset C. difficile infection (HO-CDI).
Prevention of healthcare associated infections (HAIs) remains a priority for hospitals and healthcare facilities. Every year nearly 1.7 million hospitalized patients acquire an HAI while being treated for another health issue, and more than 98,000 patients die due to these infections.
Controlling proper humidity levels in the operating room is essential for infection prevention and patient safety. CMS and AORN guidelines recommend that humidity levels in surgical suite procedure rooms should be maintained between 20% and 60%.
