There are over two million hospital acquired infections each year and 80,000 deaths per
year are attributed to infections developed in hospitals.
The blood pressure cuff is the only medical device not routinely cleaned or disaffected
between patients All research studies conclude that reused
blood pressure cuffs are contaminated and are a source for cross contamination even
reused disposable cuffs Approximately 440,000 patients that enter
the hospital and will contract the hospital acquired infection at a cost estimated to
be $10,000,000,000 per year. If only 1% of these infections caused by contaminated blood
pressure cuffs that cost would be $100,000,000 per year
Cuff-Guard is the only disposable cover for blood pressure cuffs
Place the contaminated cuff inside the Cuff-Guard Pull the two sided tape
Seal like an envelope in seconds Now you have an uncontaminated cuff to place
on your patient to prevent the spread of disease
Make sure that you are protected
