Let's Talk Magnifiers
Processing Sinks
Visual inspection during decontamination is extremely important. Enhanced visualization tools are essential to spot residue that the human eye can not detect. With increasingly complex instruments, inspection for damage and contamination are crucial for patient safety, to prevent infection and to ensure the instrument works correctly before it is packed and sterilized.
“Proper overhead lighting and lighted magnifying at the workstations is
absolutely essential to ensure that the SPD technicians are able
to perform the inspection of surgical instrumentation adequately.”
-Mary K. Lane, MHA, CSPDM, CSPDS, CSPDT
Prep & Pack Workstations
Increase quality in your department's inspection practices with digital magnifiers. Providing adequate lighting to ensure your team can identify microscopic traces of bioburden on the instruments they are reprocessing.
With better visualization, digital magnifiers also allow images to be captured to document identified damage, such as stains or cracks in instrumentation.
