AGB Antimicrobial Central Venous Catheters

Protecting patients from infection has always been the focus of attention and one of the most essential priorities of the medical and nursing staff, and its importance is increasing day by day. With the placement of "patient safety-friendly" standards at the top of the strategic policies of large hospitals in the country, the importance of infection control has received more attention. Antimicrobial or antimicrobial catheters play an undeniable role in preventing infection and protecting patients from existing risks. Antimicrobial catheters play a full role in protecting patients against the risk of infection. But before choosing these catheters by doctors and nurses, they need proof to reduce the costs of the risk of infection, costs related to treatment and hospitalization (caused by infection) and save the lives of patients, and this is exactly what they get by the help of antimicrobial catheters.

Confirmed effectiveness of antimicrobial-coated central venous catheters 

 ARROWg+ard technology is made from an exclusive combination of chlorhexidine and silver sulfadiazine. In fact, AGB catheters are impregnated with chlorhexidine and silver sulfadiazine and recommended by the Center for Disease Control (CDC) to prevent catheter-related infections. ARROWg+ard's ability to reduce infection and save patients' lives, as well as reduce costs, has been confirmed in more than 30 scientific articles.

ARROWg+ard reduce bacterial accumulation in the catheter by 60% and catheter-related blood infection by 80%. These catheters are effective against a wide range of Gram-positive bacteria including MRSA, S. Epidermidis and S. Aureus and Gram-negative bacteria including Pseudomonas, Enterococci and fungi including C. Albicans.
