SURE-SCOPE PRESENTATION Single-Use One Piece Laryngoscope with Built-In Light Source NEW & IMPROVED RE REV 1118 11182015
Did you know… There are bacteria on 86% of “disinfected” instrument handles in in hospitals! A recent study 1 revealed bacteria on 86% of instrument handles. These handles were disinfected and designated ‘ready for use’ in hospital settings. This study demonstrates a clear potential for transmission of pathogens, and highlights a clear risk to both staff and patients. 1 D. Williams, J. Dingley, C. Jones, N. Berry. ‘Contamination of laryngoscope handles’ Journal of hospital infection (2010) 74, 123 23-12 128 There are re 4.5 .5 hospital in infe fections fo for r every 100 patient admissions and nearly 100,000 deaths annually. (source: CDC) There are re approximately 1.7 .7 mil illi lion hospital-acquired in infe fections in in US hospitals, costing over $5 bil illio ion annuall lly. . (source: CDC)
SURE-SCOPE Sin ingle-Use One Pie iece Laryngoscope NEW & IMPROVED
New SURE-SCOPE Features In Include • Wider handle with added grip • Brushed steel grey color • On/off switch now available on MIL ILLER 2 and MIL ILLER 3 • Shorter/tapered LED housing on MIL ILLER 2 and MIL ILLER 3
Top 5 Benefit its of SURE-SCOPE Reduce Risk of Cross-Contamination Revolutionary One Piece Design Built-in Targeted Light Source Cost per Intubation Entirely Single-Use
Reduce Ris isk of Cross-Contaminatio ion Problem: A 2009 study published in Anesthesia & Analgesia found 75 percent of laryngoscope handles they tested were positive for bacteria. Even following mandates for cleaning and disinfecting leaves pathogens that can transfer from one patient to the next. Solution: SURE-SCOPE comes packed sterile, and the entir ire device is single- use – one patient, one use. SURE-SCOPE eliminates the risk of cross-contamination from poorly cleaned laryngoscope blades/handles.
Revolutionary ry One Pie iece Desig ign Problem: Most laryngoscope systems require assembly and testing prior to each use. Attachment of a disposable blade and verification of the light source is necessary before every intubation. Reusable handles are exposed to rigorous disinfection and harsh chemicals which over time compromises the integrity of the blade and light source. Solution: SURE-SCOPE single-use one piece laryngoscope maintains blade integrity. There are no batteries to replace, no additional parts/components, and no assembly required. In addition, there is no risk of corrosion at the electrical contact point to reduce the efficiency of the light source.
Buil ilt-In Targeted Lig ight Source Problem: Most laryngoscope light sources burn through batteries or constantly need charging. They can be difficult to focus, making intubations harder. The cleaning and disinfecting process corrodes the electrical contact points causing the light to flicker or fail in the middle of an intubation. Solution: Never worry about light source failure again. Each SURE-SCOPE comes with a built-in ultra bright LED light source located at the distal tip of the laryngoscope blade. SURE-SCOPE light source does not utilize a light pipe of any kind so the maximum power of the light source is fully realized. High-powered illumination is achieved without generating any damaging heat.
Cost t Per In Intu tubatio ion Problem: The average cost of a reusable laryngoscope is $27.40 per intubation, according to a study conducted by Southeast Health. Reusable devices require the facility to stock handles and/or blades. Add to that the cost of reprocessing the units and powering the light source. Solution: The one piece design of SURE-SCOPE eliminates the need for additional parts and components like disposable blades or replacement parts/components. The entire device is single-use; the facility incurs no additional reprocessing expenses. Medical facilities can cut their cost per intubation to under $10.
Enti tirely Sin ingle le-Use Problem: Reusable parts/components create unnecessary liability. They elevate the risk of cross-contamination and are more likely to fail due to wear and tear. In addition, reusable parts/components add cost. They need to be reprocessed after each use and replaced when broken or misplaced. Solution: The one piece design of SURE-SCOPE eliminates the need for additional parts and components like disposable blades or replacement parts/components. SURE-SCOPE comes with a built-in LED light source, so there is no need for recharging units or spare batteries. The entire device is single-use; the facility incurs no additional reprocessing expenses.
Il Illumination Strength Study OBP Medical conducted a study comparing the illumination strength of three single-use laryngoscope systems: OBP Medical’s SURE-SCOPE, Competitor A, and Competitor B. Of the three models, OBP Medical’s SURE-SCOPE offers the brightest light source. Competitor A’s device came in at a distant second with the Competitor B not far behind. The weak illumination strength demonstrated during this study makes both Competitor A’s and B’s product ineffective choices. Of the three products, SURE-SCOPE is is cle learly the best choic ice. The results from OBP Medical’s study are lis listed on the foll llowing slid lide.
Il Illumination Strength Study Results OBP Medical’s SURE -SCOPE: 10,000 LUX Light source powered by 3 Alkaline button batteries. These batteries are low voltage and contain no hazardous materials or heavy chemistry. No light pipe and optimal positioning of the light source ensure the full potential of the illumination strength is realized. Competitor A: : 2,6 ,600 – 3,0 ,000 LUX Light source powered by two AA batteries (sold separately). These batteries contain over 30 times the waste of the batteries used in the SURE-SCOPE. Competitor B: : 1,6 ,600 – 2,6 ,600 LUX Broad spread due to the light pipe connection. Light source powered by two LR1 batteries. These batteries contain over 12 times the waste of the batteries used in the SURE-SCOPE.
Patient Safety Patient safety is is a primary concern. • SURE-SCOPE help lps to to: Maximize infection control. Maximize cleanliness. Maximize efficiency. Eliminate the risk of cross-contamination. Eliminate the need to monitor sterilization procedures & tracking.
Revolutionary Material Each SURE-SCOPE is made of a reinforced nylon polyarylamide compound, offering exceptional strength and rigidity never before seen in a single-use laryngoscope. Each SURE-SCOPE blade is validated to support over 40lbs of blade force, 4 ti times hig igher th than standard in intu tubation requirements*. *The Association of Anaesthetists of Great Britain and Ireland concluded that approximately 10lbs of force is needed to intubate the average patient.
Conclusion With the rising cost of health care in the spotlight, medical facilities need to utilize the most cost effective and practical tools available. SURE-SCOPE offers savings and construction that is more efficient and eliminates cross-contamination issues found with laryngoscopes that require reusable parts and components. Add the targeted light source that improves visualization and the ergonomic design for comfort; it is clear why SURE-SCOPE is the right choice for your facilities.
SURE-SCOPE Batt tteries The SURE-SCOPE lig light source co contains modern Alk lkaline batteries. Alkaline batteries do not contain toxic materials per federal E.P.A. guidelines. “Button” style AG3 batteries contain only enough chemistry for a single use. It would take 300 AG3 batteries to equal the chemistry volume of just 1 average alkaline flashlight battery. * For additional battery related information please visit www.obpmedical.com. * Check EPA guidelines for battery disposal in your state.
