“There is clear evidence regarding the presence of high-risk microorganisms, such as C. difficile spores and MRSA, on high-touch, shared surfaces and equipment in the healthcare environment,”1 stated Dr. Ashish Mathur, Vice President of Innovation and Technology, UVDI. “The UVDI-GO™ UV LED Surface Sanitizer can help prevent the spread of microorganisms with fast, sporicidal disinfection that is efficient in use and safe for surfaces.”
Fast, Independently Proven Surface Disinfection
The UVDI-GO™ features patented, high-performance UV-C LED technology which has been independently proven to provide 99.99% inactivation of C. difficile spores in just 20 seconds and 99.999% inactivation of MRSA in only 10 seconds at four inches distance. This enables healthcare professionals to quickly disinfect surfaces and equipment between uses.
Portable, On-the-Go Use
The UVDI-GO™ is designed for durable, portable use, featuring cordless, battery-powered operation and lightweight compact design. A rechargeable lithium-ion battery provides 90 minutes of run time per charge for efficient, point-of-use surface disinfection.
Surface-Safe Disinfection
The UVDI-GO™ is safe for use on common healthcare surfaces and equipment - including tablets, smartphones, keyboards, workstations on wheels, remote controls, patient call buttons, and employee badges - enabling broad use throughout healthcare facilities.
Designed for User Safety
The UVDI-GO™ is equipped with an easy-to-attach protective cone, which shields users from UV exposure during operation. This allows healthcare professionals to safely operate the handheld UVDI-GO™ while wearing protective goggles and gloves.
“UVDI is committed to helping healthcare professionals reach their goal of better patient outcomes with innovative UV-C technology that pioneers new levels of performance,” added Peter Veloz, CEO, UVDI. “We believe the UVDI-GO™ advances this goal by making the disinfection of commonly shared surfaces faster, easier and safer.”
UVDI is a proud 2023 APIC Strategic Partner and attendees at this year’s conference can visit the UVDI booth (#951) to demo both the UVDI-GO™ UV LED Surface Sanitizer and the UVDI-360 Room Sanitizer with UV Smart Connect™.
