Resurgent Health and Medical Launches CleanTracker at APIC Annual Conference

Resurgent Health and Medical, a leader in automated handwashing and sanitizing technology, announced the launch of the CleanTracker at the Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology (APIC) annual conference last week. The CleanTracker is the only fully functional RFID technology available to track handwashing compliance.

“At APIC we had interest from over 550 healthcare professionals and performed over 1300 handwashes with our machines,” said Jim Glenn, CEO of Resurgent Health and Medical. “With infection rates rising, mandatory reporting, and changes in reimbursement, healthcare facilities must do more to improve handwashing compliance to reduce HAIs.”

The CleanTracker software and RFID compliance monitoring technology is for use with Resurgent’s CleanTech IC automated handwashing systems. Users wash their hands and the CleanTech system and CleanTracker software do all the reporting. The easily navigated software gathers users’ data at the handwashing system and pushes the information to the database without intervention by an administrator.

The CleanTracker offers infection control departments streamlined hand hygiene data. The CleanTracker also offers the following benefits:

— Easily review reports of hand hygiene activity by a specified time period or by department, job title, or individual.

— Create and store quick reports for both past and current data.

— Generate simple graphs or tables for visual indications of hygiene events by department, job title or user.

— Automatically track hand washes that are complete or incomplete.

— Create customizable handwashing targets that can be assigned by department, job title or individual user to give staff a comparative record of hand hygiene compliance.

— User identity can easily be turned off to protect personal information.

The CleanTech touchless system performs a fully-automated twelve-second wash, sanitize and rinse cycle. Using Resurgent’s proprietary Chlorhexidine Gluconate (CHG) sanitizing solution, the single cycle removes over 99.9% of pathogens and continues to kill germs for up to six hours. The FDA certified CHG-based sanitizer contains mild skin conditioners to continuously improve skin health while removing dangerous germs.

The system further boosts compliance by ensuring a pleasant, uniform hand wash using high-pressure water jets that perform a consistent wash-and-sanitize cycle every time the machines are used.
