1. Nosocomial infections can be fatal and increases overall healthcare costs

  • Of every 100 hospitalized patients at any given time, 7 in developed and 10 in developing countries will acquire at least one health care-associated infection
  • 10,000-20,000 end fatally
  • 20-30% of nosocomial infections could be prevented by improved hygiene
  • Nosocomial infections prolong hospital stay by an average of 10 days + access cost of $15,275 for confirmed hospital acquired infection

Filters performance data

Our filters performance data are performed by Nelson laboratories, Inc, using the widely accepted performance criteria for airway filters in ventilation. Since 2010, there has been changes and upgrades made over the years by Nelson Laboratories, Inc and the current test data should be analyzed as data from a new method and NOT comparable to testing formed before 2010.
