摘要:
Disclosed is a an economical blood pressure cuff shield that acts as an hygienic barrier between patients and blood pressure cuffs during blood pressure measurement. The shield includes antimicrobial properties, which eradicate microorganisms on contact, protecting the shield from communicated pathogens and preventing the blood pressure cuff from colonization of the common health-care associated microbes. With the antimicrobial properties, the shield can be used for multiple patients over a 24 hour period. After the indicated period of use, the blood pressure cuff shield is removed and discarded. The biodegradable and cost effective construction allows the health care field to stride towards eco-friendly solutions to improve sanitation and sterility of facilities.
