10/1/07–SenTec
SenTec AG recently received CE and FDA 510k Approval for
the neonatal use of the SenTec Digital Monitoring System
(SDMS).
In
neonatal care the ability to continuously monitor and immediately
react to changes in carbon dioxide levels is of particular
importance. Continuous pCO2 data can help to avoid hypo-
or hypercapnia thereby preventing organ damage or failure.
Furthermore continuous pCO2 data are particularly useful
to monitor neonatal patient under High Frequency Oscillation
Ventilation (HFOV). With the CE and FDA approval for the
neonatal use of the SDMS, a wider patient population can
now benefit from the noninvasive and continuous real time
data that are provided by the SDMS.

Pro
PROBLEM:
Hospital
infections kill 90,000 people and cost $50 Billion per year.
CURRENT STATE OF THE ART:
Most
hand and surface sanitizers have immediate kill, but do
not have persistence to continue to kill after initial application,
allowing re-infection and cross-contamination.
SOLUTION:
Germ
Pro's Persistent
Action Plan uses the combination of two critical products,
their Hand Sanitizing Lotion and Surface Disinfectant, both
with persistence to help prevent the spread of infectious
diseases. Germ Pro's products continue to kill helping prevent
re-infection.
