Four-hour rapid readout biological indicator for vaporized hydrogen peroxide sterilization

The 3M Attest Rapid Readout Biological Indicator System provides biological results for vaporized hydrogen peroxide sterilization in just four hours so information is ready while there is still time to act. With this breakthrough speed, sterile processing staff can alert surgical personnel while a patient is still in the OR, or even stop a contaminated instrument from being used at all. Results can be documented on the same day, during the same shift, and perhaps with the same operator – helping to standardize release practices and simplify workflows. Connectivity to popular instrument tracking systems helps teams streamline record keeping and avoid documentation errors. The product is cleared for use with all current cycles in three models of STERRAD Sterilizers: the 100S, the 100NX, and the NX.

Free-standing portable stadiometer

DETECTO’s new model PHR free-standing portable height rod is simple to set up and easy to use for height measurement ranging from pediatric to adult use. There’s no wall fastening necessary and it may be positioned against a wall or completely free standing due to its large floor plate. Two spacers provide additional stability when placed against a wall. The mechanical stadiometer measures from 4.5 in – 81 in and 11.5 cm – 205 cm with 0.125 in / 0.1 cm graduations visible on both sides of the height rod. The PHR stadiometer features a unique reversible head piece that lets you add a DETECTO DR400C digital floor scale at the base to measure weight and height simultaneously. If you use the PHR without a DR400C scale at the base, simply flip the head piece upside down. An optional PHR-CASE carrying case with shoulder strap is available that fits the PHR and DR400C scale.

Clean and Dirty Locks for extra round soaker security

Healthmark Industries’ Endo Bin and Trolley Set is comprised of five lockable Round Soaker trays (20” diameter) to safely hold flexible scopes without over bending. These trays easily slide onto a specially designed stainless-steel Trolley. The lockable trays allow you to create a controlled delivery and retrieval system for endoscopes with tamper evident seals. Also included is a pre-packaged sample pack of 2 “Clean” seals (green) and two “Dirty” seals (red-biohazard) for each lockable Round Soaker tray. The green locks create a clear message to the clinical staff that the internal endoscope has been processed and is ready for use. The red-biohazard seal in contrast clearly indicates the scope has been used and is contaminated.

PCA 7.0 Infusion System integrates with the electronic medical record

Hospira’s LifeCare PCA 7.0 Infusion System is the first patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) infusion pump to offer electronic medical record (EMR) integration (also known as I.V.-EMR interoperability). LifeCare PCA 7.0 enables device auto-programming and streamlines documentation of infusion data to help improve the safety and efficiency of pain management medication administration. The PCA pump with integrated bar code identification of prefilled and pharmacy-filled drug vials eliminates the potential for drug and concentration errors at the bedside. New security options include hospital-configured device passwords and enhanced protection of customer network security settings; automatic detection and closure of unused network communications ports; and updated communications engine technology, including removal of telnet service.
