Other Antimicrobial Product Applications
Infection control in the health care setting is of paramount concern to all practitioners, patients, and governing bodies. Of particular concern is prevention of hospital acquired infections, known as nosocomial infections. According to a report published by the World Health Organization, nosocomial infections increase the length of stay in hospitals, resulting in an increase in costs to patients and payers and are the leading cause of hospital deaths. All of these products will be manufactured by Nexera using Fosshield® antimicrobial technology to prevent the transmission of hospital acquired infections. An array of other Nexera antimicrobial products will soon include:

• Surgical and dental masks
• Mattress pads
• Bed linens & pillow cases
• Hospital scrubs
• Wound care products
