Why sterility and consistency matter in surgical irrigation
Surgical wound irrigation is an important part of infection risk reduction. While back table PVP-I irrigation solution mixing is common practice, it can introduce variability that may compromise both sterility and consistency.
Not all irrigation solutions are created equal.
All in one squeeze
The Surgiphor™ Surgical Wound Irrigation System combines mechanical debris removal with PVP-I-powered antimicrobial activity in a terminally sterile, ready-to-use system—supporting optimal patient outcomes with every flush.
Terminally sterile
- Terminally sterilized solution with a sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10-6, providing confidence that the product has one in a million chance of containing a single viable microorganism1.
- Provides confidence of sterility and minimal risk of intrinsic and extrinsic contamination.
Uncompromised quality
- BD manufacturing process ensures the SurgiphorTM Surgical Wound Irrigation System is made to specifications every time.
- Pre-mixed and pre-labelled formulation that requires no mixing prior to use and aids in reducing potential risks associated with formulation variability and related medical errors.
Efficacy you can count on
- PVP-I is a well-known antiseptic agent with broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity2.
- 2-4 bacterial log reduction of bacterial load in a simulated infected implant and wound animal model.
- Reduces risk of unwanted microbial growth within solution for up to 24 hours after bottle is opened
Every preparation step can add variability.
Relying on back-table PVP-I irrigation solution mixing? There’s a more consistent approach.
BD Surgiphor™ Surgical Wound Irrigation System is terminally sterilized, pre-mixed and ready to use, delivering consistent 0.5% PVP-I concentration with no guesswork, no dilution and no added steps.
Let's make sterility standard.
