Field Trial Summaries

Several published studies4 tested the GLOSAIR™ 400 System and showed that it is effective against a variety of HAI-causing pathogens in a range of different healthcare environments.

The key messages from these studies can be summarized as follows:

  • Area Decontamination offers improved efficacy against infection-causing pathogens compared to manual cleaning
  • Studies support the ASP GLOSAIR™ system as an effective area decontamination resource
  • The ASP GLOSAIR™ system delivers positive results as compared to unpredictable manual cleaning practices: Hydrogen peroxide mist decontaminates surfaces and areas not easily accessible or effectively decontaminated by facilities staff
