Description

The Nail Cleaner Scrub Brush with 4% Chlorhexidine Gluconate is a specialized tool designed for preoperative surgical scrubbing. Each brush is impregnated with an antimicrobial formulation, specifically Chlorhexidine Gluconate (CHG), known for its effective germ-killing properties. This ensures thorough cleansing and disinfection of hands and nails, crucial steps in preventing surgical site infections (SSIs) and maintaining sterile conditions in operating rooms.

Individually packaged for sterility, these scrub brushes are convenient and ready for immediate use in healthcare settings. The single-use packaging not only ensures hygienic handling but also simplifies inventory management and reduces the risk of contamination. Each brush is designed to provide an ergonomic grip and optimal scrubbing action, facilitating thorough cleaning of nails and surrounding skin surfaces.

The incorporation of 4% Chlorhexidine Gluconate in the brush's antimicrobial solution enhances its efficacy against a broad spectrum of bacteria, including both gram-positive and gram-negative organisms. This formulation meets stringent healthcare standards for surgical scrubbing protocols, supporting infection control practices mandated by regulatory bodies and healthcare institutions.
