PATIENT SAFETY LEADERS To protect your patients (and your investment), you'll want a highly effective, tested and trusted UV device. Proven Efficacy When choosing a UV system, you'll want assurance of optimum performance. You'll know where, when and how the device is working. Enhanced data capture Remote status and operation Usage analysis References: 1. Pegues, D.; Gilmar, C.; Denno, M.; Gaynes, S.
