Decontamination System Aids Healthcare Facility Sterilization
Effective, safe and thorough disinfection of hospital rooms and
operating suites is now more easily attained through the use of an
innovative infection prevention technology that reduces the risk of
patient contact with infection-causing pathogens.
The GLOSAIR Healthcare Environmental Decontamination system by Advanced
Sterilization Products augments manual cleaning processes and has
reportedly been shown to be more effective in the reduction of
healthcare-associated infection (HAI) pathogens as compared to cleaning
alone.
By creating a fog of 5 percent hydrogen peroxide that is uniformly
dispersed, the system disinfects all hard, nonporous surfaces including
difficult-to-reach areas. Useable on bed rails, TV remotes and IV pumps,
GLOSAIR provides HAI control and prevention. Healthcare facilities can
reduce the number of these pathogens in the hospital environment by
introducing enhanced, deep cleaning and disinfection protocols to
current practices.

Educational Tool Cuts Down Healthcare Infection Risks
Healthcare providers now have the ability to better identify risks for
exposure to bloodborne pathogens through a new program developed by BD
Medical, a leading provider of IV catheters.
The BD Making Safety SaferSM program provides nurses and other
professionals with a forum to share information on risks, precautions
and interventions; learn from experts and peers; and assist hospitals
and other healthcare organizations in addressing ongoing concerns
relating to blood exposure due to insertion of a short peripheral IV
catheter.
By educating on the approach of short peripheral IV insertion, such as
using appropriate personal protective equipment and taking other
appropriate precautions to better protect against contaminated blood,
the tool helps ensure safety of providers and other patients.
