Ergotron Partners with UV Angel to Reduce Spread of Pathogens within Healthcare Systems
Ultraviolet (UV-C) light-equipped workstations eliminate 99% of surface contamination without disrupting caregiver workflow
(PresseBox) - As healthcare providers continue to focus on reducing the spread of pathogens within care facilities, Ergotron andUV Angelultraviolet (UV-C) light technology solutionand focused on providing quality care to their patients.
Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, ensuring the health and safety of healthcare providers and patients has never been more important. Research has shown that the presence of healthcare-associated infection pathogens can be found on 1 in 4 frequently touched surfaces. This demonstrates the critical importance of maintaining clean workspaces to reduce the harmful spread of bacteria, fungi and viruses between patients and caregivers. With the addition of automated UV Angel Adapt? technology to Ergotron?s StyleView medical carts, up to 99% of surface contamination can be eliminated hundreds of times a day, providing continuous monitoring and pathogen reduction without disruption.
?The partnership with UV Angel underscores Ergotron?s commitment to helping our healthcare customers thrive,? said Mark Brandenhoff, general manager, healthcare at Ergotron. ?By adding clinically proven UV-C light technology to our workstations, we?re providing an extra layer of protection, empowering caregivers and other healthcare workers to feel confident they are doing everything they can to stay healthy and safe during this challenging time.?
Studies have shown that people are a primary source of contamination and disease transmission. The recent pandemic has once again highlighted the need to add enhanced source-level controls at the point of contamination. The UV Angel Adapt? technology has been specifically designed as an engineered source-level control system, operating automatically and independent of other cleaning procedures and infection control measures.
