These contact bacteria are especially feared, due to multi resistance.<br />
Standard cross-contamination preventive measures of hygienic hand disinfection between<br />
patients, and wearing gloves can be significantly aided by applying single-use disposable<br />
tourniquets.<br />
A single-use policy in your hospital or institution provides best possible protection for<br />
both patients and nursing personnel.<br />
In order to provide this protection for patients and personnel, Greiner Bio-One has<br />
expanded the range of safety products with the addition of the new, VACUETTE®<br />
<strong>Disposable</strong> <strong>Tourniquet</strong>. The tourniquets have a special coating on the inner side which<br />
guarantee a firm fit, preventing slipping when pulling tight.<br />
The tourniquets are furthermore LATEX-FREE.<br />
Recent studies have brought to light the dangers of crosscontamination.<br />
If standard tourniquets are re-used, there<br />
is a risk of infection.<br />
Particular problems:<br />
- Staphylococcus aureus<br />
- Enterococcus faecium<br />
- Pseudomonas aeruginosa<br />
Workers in the healthcare industry are at risk of developing latex-allergy due to regular<br />
contact. Use of the VACUETTE® <strong>Disposable</strong> <strong>Tourniquet</strong> can prevent developing this<br />
allergy, and help reduce the suffering of those with a latex-allergy.<br />
