Judy Bendit, RDH, on BioGuard
BioGuard biologic vacuum system cleaner uses bacterial enzymes with continuous cleaning ability. It not only dissolves debris, but continues to consume it. The liquid formula mixes easily and is dispensed through pre-measured packets, saving staff time and effort.
How does it improve the workflow?
It is designed to be only used twice per week. You do not have to flush your lines daily, which saves time at the end of the day and during room setup. However, if you do wish to flush your lines between patients, use tap water.
What is unique about BioGuard?
While its enzymatic activity softens the bioburden, the biologic portion is active bacteria that then clears the bioburden, working continuously.
What other features do you like?
Its specially designed dispenser incorporates air while cleaning to give more turbulence in canister, which automatically mixes the cleaner.
