High-Level Disinfection of Ultrasound Probes for Vascular Access
Show Notes

This episode of the I Save That Podcast is supported by Parker Laboratories.  AVA has been in the middle of the debate regarding low, intermediate, and high-level disinfection of ultrasound probes used for vascular access procedures for a very long time. In this episode, Judy discusses a new product that just recently was awarded FDA clearance for HLD of US Probes. Judy discusses Tristel’s products ULT and Duo. ULT was just recently approved for use in the United States.
Ash McMaster and Mathieu Frateur met with Judy a few months back, and then just last week, Neal Buchalter joined in to discuss the recent FDA approval of Tristel’s ULT, High-Level Disinfection.
