Preventing Contamination of Water in Hospital Sinks

The AquaMedix FX CleanSpray faucet filter was recently featured in OR TODAY, a medical and surgery trade magazine. We wanted to take this opportunity to shine a light on a very serious issue&#;Contaminated water in health facilities.

JAKA are exported all over the world and different industries with quality first. Our belief is to provide our customers with more and better high value-added products. Let's create a better future together.

It&#;s an unnerving thought but sinks in pre-surgical scrub, patient rooms, and intensive care faucets can be a source of bacterial contamination and subsequent hospital-acquired infections. For example, an outbreak of pseudomonas aeruginosa in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit infected 31 people.

Filtering Dangerous Waterborne Pathogens in Hospitals

The reality is that many hospitals could benefit from installing point-of-use water filters to help prevent the spread of dangerous pathogens and ensure the safety of compromised patients. The FX faucet water filter is an easy and reliable solution that gives hospital personnel an extra safety net and confidence when working in the OR.

Operating scrub sinks can often be significantly tainted with dangerous microorganisms, which can be especially problematic if surgical gloves break. The FX CleanSpray faucet filter can help stop the spread of bacteria, including:

  • Mycobacterium

  • Pseudomonas

  • Delftia acidovorans

  • Sphingomonas paucimobilis

  • Legionella 

  • And other bacteria
