Innovation in Scope Drying: Why Mass Medical scope drying cabinets are so popular amongst sterile processing teams.
The best brand of endoscope drying cabinets?
The truth is, "best" is subjective. It may vary based on your needs as a sterile processing technician.
The goal of this article is to give you information about the TruAir scope drying cabinets. Which is what we offer at SDV Medical.
After reading this, you can decide if a product is right for you and your team.
Here are six reasons we find TruAir cabinets to be so popular among the professionals we work with.
1. Advanced HEPA filtration
It is frustrating to do everything right in the sterilization process but still risk a critical error due to your cabinet's filtration system.
The HEPA filtration system in the TruAir cabinets captures 99.97% of particles as small as 0.3 microns.
But statistics can be boring, so here is why this matters.
This ensures that the air circulating in the cabinet is clean and free of contaminants.
This means the team can be sure that all harmful bacteria is gone.
Ensuring that the next patient in line is not at risk of infection.
2. Extended Scope Storage Time
Nobody wants to reprocess scopes that someone has already sterilized. This slows sterile processing technicians down.
A key feature of TruAir cabinets is their ability to store scopes for 31 days without reprocessing.
This extended storage time keeps scopes clean and ready to use. Which helps to streamline workflow for the sterile processing team.
Many other scope drying cabinets offer shorter storage windows, usually 7 to 14 days.
To put this in perspective, endoscopes may need reprocessing 2-3 times more often than those stored in TruAir cabinets.
This can increase the workload and operational costs.
3. Customizable Capacity
One of my favorite features of TruAir cabinets is their compatibility.
Medical facilities often use various brands of endoscopes.
TruAir cabinets work with most scope brands, like Olympus, Pentax, Fuji and Storz. They also accommodate various sizes of endoscopes.
This allows for flexibility. While also saving the facility the cost of buying new, compatible equipment.
4. Compliance with Infection Control Standards
Industry guidelines are ever-changing. This is important to ensure we uphold the highest standards for patient safety.
Many other cabinet companies do the bare minimum to meet the industry guidelines.
Mass Medical has made it a clear priority to prioritize these standards in their design.
TruAir Cabinets are built to meet standards set by the AAMI and the CDC. This makes them a trusted choice for facilities that prioritize patient safety and infection prevention.
5. User-Friendly Monitoring and Controls
Constantly monitoring scopes is time-consuming. It requires attention that could be used elsewhere.
TruAir cabinets include digital control systems. These systems let staff monitor drying times, temperature, and humidity in real time.
They also have alerts to notify staff when scopes are ready or need maintenance.
No matter what cabinet brand you choose, this feature is a must to maximize efficiency.
6. Energy Efficiency and Durability
With energy costs rising, healthcare facilities must assess their equipment's efficiency.
The Mass Medical engineering team designed TruAir cabinets for energy efficiency. They offer reduced energy consumption without sacrificing performance.
This attention to energy efficiency makes them a more cost-effective option over time.
