Along with social distancing and maintaining hygiene regimes, it’s vitally important to eliminate contaminants spread via ambient air. The Sterilair PRO is an Air Biological Treatment System, making it a key player in infection prevention.

Originally designed for use in healthcare facilities, the Sterilair PRO is now used globally in a range of indoor environments including offices, banks, hotels, restaurants, retail, etc. – anywhere there is a high turnover of people.

We’ve put together new summary documents to help answer any questions you may have about exactly what the Sterilair PRO does, and the science behind its efficacy. These documents are now available on our website (direct links below).

Returning to work increases the risk of spreading coronavirus, as recognised in this article by WIRED UK.

“The air flow in most modern offices can’t clear clouds of coronavirus particles, raising concerns about the safety of returning to work”.

 

Returning to work shouldn’t come with risks.

The Sterilair PRO is a proven, effective and simple solution to this complex and widespread problem. Used within the NHS (clinics and waiting rooms), Hospital Workshops, Dental Practices, Offices, Hotels – and many more indoor environments globally.

Our service manager, Scott, is busy this week calibrating 80+ audiometers from various NHS sites across the country.

Thanks to the site teams who worked with us to facilitate safe collection and return of the equipment.

This week Ai Healthcare delivered, installed and programmed six Sterilair PRO units in a number of clinical engineering workshops across London hospitals. These units will help to maintain healthy work environments for the valued engineers and staff who work tirelessly to support our NHS.

Last Friday we visited The West Malling Dental Practice in Kent to install two Sterilair PRO units.

Introducing these units to their practice has assisted them in safely re-opening their doors whilst reducing wait-times between each patient, on top of providing valuable peace of mind to patients and staff alike; altogether further optimising their dental care.

 

As a fully autoclavable system, the Baldus Double Mask Scavenger System is up to 30 times more cost-efficient than competitors.

Increased hygiene, increased safety, increased value.

The coronavirus can survive on surfaces like table counters, door handles, and bed frames for days, consequently spreading the virus despite sanitizing with a cloth, chlorine, and other traditional methods.

According to tests conducted by the German laboratory, Dr. Brill + Partner GmbH, the STERISAFE PRO robot can kill the coronavirus on surfaces, as well as in closed spaces. Thus, effectively disinfecting hospital rooms and other critical areas so nurses and doctors can help far more patients due to the efficient cleaning method. The results demonstrate that the STERISAFE PRO robot has an effectiveness of an overall of 99.999% (5 log reduction) on coronavirus type.

STERISAFE received multiple assurances, from independent laboratories, verifying the robot’s extreme effectiveness. Nevertheless, this is the first time that the robot’s efficacy has been tested explicitly on the coronavirus.The German independent laboratory, Dr. Brill & Dr. Steinmann Institute for hygiene and microbiology, performed the test.

The detailed results from the institute conclude a ≥ 5.25 log reduction on Stainless Steel, ≥4.75 log reduction on solid core furniture boards and ≥log 5.0 log reduction on ceramic tiles.These results fulfill all expectations and requirements for the STERISAFE PRO robot and its ability to disinfect areas contaminated with the virus.

In many areas of our lives, technology is changing the way we live, helping to improve the quality of our work and our personal lives. However, the speed at which technology is changing is increasing and whilst the tools we have at our disposal enable us to deliver increasing levels of care for our patients, they require more skills and time to ensure they continue to work without any disruption.

For most practices, the main objective is to provide high levels of patient care but to continue to do this profitably can be challenging and if equipment breaks down it can mean the practice has to close or provide limited services. When a new piece of equipment such as a chair, sedation unit or imaging equipment is installed it is a significant investment. Whilst this will help ensure the patients get better care, it can be a financial drain on the business so ensuring you get the best return on the investment is essential.

As a specialist healthcare engineering business, our role is to ensure our customers, dental and healthcare practices can deliver a seamless service. Since we began delivering this service, we have seen many practices engage us to deliver repair services, using our technical skills and engineer teams as and when needed. However, this is often not the more effective way to manage highly technical equipment and can lead to increased costs for repairs, not to mention loss of revenue while the equipment or out of operation.

When dentists see patients they explain that with regular cleaning and regular trips to the dentist there is a great chance of keeping teeth health and not needing any major work done on them and Keeping equipment, especially highly technical, complex machinery serviced regularly has the same impact, it reduces the risk that this machinery will breakdown and will help to ensure that your practice can operate at full capacity without reducing the return on the investment made. Essential preventative maintenance identifies problems before they affect your practice, providing you with consistent availability of your investment, and reduced costs for emergency callouts and repairs.

At Ai Healthcare, an independent, specialist dental and healthcare engineering business, our role is to ensure our customers, dental and healthcare practices can deliver a seamless service. We pride ourselves on being at the forefront of technological advancements within the healthcare sector and above all we are here to ensure you get the best return on investment from the investment you have made in equipment.

Our team of National Engineers are certified by the manufacturers and highly skilled, ensuring your equipment is properly maintained and safe to use on your patients whilst achieving full compliance with CQC.

Ai Healthcare can provide:

• Routine and planned maintenance for Dental and Medical Equipment
• Dental Sedation Equipment Sales and Maintenance
• Sales, Validation and maintenance of all Decontamination Equipment
• Design and build for Dental Surgeries and Local Decontamination Units to HTM 0105
• X-Ray and Imaging sales, installation and maintenance

We will maintain the health of your practice. Contact us to find out how.
