“Epidemiologically speaking, mobile equipment may play a significant role in room-to-room transmission of HAIs. Studies have found alarming levels of bacteria on mobile equipment like workstations, IV pumps, pulse oximeters, isolettes, and even patient charts. We want to help hospitals ensure that their mobile equipment is not carrying dangerous pathogens from room to room and that’s what the LightStrike Disinfection Pod can accomplish. We believe this is a major step forward for room disinfection and patient safety,” said Dr. Mark Stibich, co-founder and Chief Scientific Officer of Xenex.
Xenex is demonstrating its new LightStrike Disinfection Pod on June 14-16, 2017 at the 44th Annual Conference of the Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology (APIC) in booth 536.
