Benefits
Over 30% reduction of HAIs – be the safer hospital
A clinical study, conducted on 36.000 patient-days, concluded that UV-C disinfection dramatically reduces HAIs (incidence difference, 1,3/1000 patient-days, a reduction of 34,2 %).[4]
Significant time saving - reduce the time between surgeries
An average disinfection cycle with SteriPro is 10–20 minutes (depending on the size of the room). Time-saving of over 2 hours is achieved compared to other contactless disinfection technologies (aerosol of hydrogen peroxide), while SteriPro does not require supervision during operation.
Proof of disinfection – an important aspect of hospital manager’s peace-of-mind
Always know which room has been disinfected, was the SteriPro UV-C disinfection cycle completed successfully, who was the operator etc. Real-time reports re-assure hospital managers that a room has been thoroughly disinfected.
Easy introduction into your disinfection process
SteriPro team trains your personnel and helps you include UV-C disinfection into your hospital’s established disinfection workflows. Since SteriPro is automated, there will not be additional stress for your personnel.
Features
Automatic detection of room size
SteriPro‘s sensors automatically determine the room size and suggest the necessary duration of the disinfection cycle. For a standard hospital room just 10 minutes cycle, and for the operating theatre around 20 minutes cycle is enough to assure healthier environment for the patients and the personnel.
Expandable height
It can be positioned in a single position to reach and disinfect the entire room, floor to ceiling. Our expandable system enables better angle of radiation and can reach all high-touch surfaces in a single disinfection cycle.
Tablet operated
SteriPro is operated by a smart tablet computer, which is controlled by an operator. When the cycle is completed, SteriPro automatically shuts down and notifies the operator via operating tablet about the status of the disinfection process.
Reassuring safety
SteriPro is safe to use. When it‘s sensors detect movement in the room, the device automatically stops with disinfection process and shuts down instantly.
Mobile and durable
Use SteriPro in every room and even ambulance vehicles. Sturdy, yet portable design with expandable height is a major advantage for your staff to use SteriPro with motivation.
Most reliable option in the market
Lifetime warranty program is our commitment to the safety of your decision. Servicing once a year is all that is required for an unlimited disinfection use in your facility.
Why
Hospital associated infections[1]
- HAIs annually impact around 3,2 million people in Europe.
- HAIs in the EU cost €5,5 to €7 billion per year, considering direct costs only
- HAIs contribute to additional 16 million days of hospital stays per year.
- HAIs in the EU are responsible for 37.000 deaths annually.
- Manual cleaning and chemical disinfection leave less than 50%[2] of hospital room surfaces adequately cleaned.
How does UV-C work?
Ultraviolet light in the germicidal wavelength – at around 254 nm - renders the organisms sterile.
Wavelengths in the UV-C range are particularly damaging to cells because they are absorbed by proteins, RNA, and DNA.
Mercury vapor lamps radiate about 95 % of their energy at a wavelength of 253,7 nm, which is coincidentally so close to the DNA absorption peak (260–265 nm) that it has a high germicidal effectiveness.[3]
