The Disposable Difference

Aside from the obvious benefit of simplified ordering and application, choosing Welch Allyn FlexiPort Disposable Blood Pressure Cuffs over reusable cuffs may significantly decreases the risk of cross-contamination. Hospital-induced (nosocomial) infections strike seven to ten percent of all patients, and in addition to the negative effects on length of stay and cost, these infections are responsible for 80,000 deaths in the U.S. each year. Poorly cleaned reusable blood pressure cuffs, along with other factors, are a primary source for such bacteria.

By converting to disposable cuffs, you can significantly reduce the risk of cross-contamination and related infections.

Consider this:

Reusable blood pressure cuffs can carry such bacteria as Klebsiella pneumoniae, Norwegian Scabies, E. cloacae, and Staphylococcus aureus-bacteria potentially deadly to infants and adults alike. Reused blood pressure cuffs are a primary carrier of MRSA, which is responsible for 12% of all hospital-related infections in the U.S .

True standardization meets reduced cross-contamination

A reliable disposable cuff solution, FlexiPort Disposable Blood Pressure Cuffs deliver value to hospitals by combining the benefits of FlexiPort Cuff technology with reduced risk of cross-contamination that comes with implementing a single-patient use model.
