RE:More Seriously
RE:More SeriouslyThis study, while it had small sample size, showed 50% contamination rate for scopes even at baseline after high level disinfection using Medivators systems and confirms previous totally unacceptable contamination rates. But, also read the Conflict of Interest disclaimer at the beginning of the short paper! All of the authors, as is usually the case, are consultants or employees of Medivators, Sterrad, 3M, Steris... So don't expect any of these to report on or refer to the efficacy of the VP4 to definitively solve these scope contamination problems!! The problem is well identified. Again.
TOS will break through $5.00 when they gain recogition by the FDA (in addition to existing Canadian and EU claims) for sterilizing the Olympus Q180V, as well as the colonoscopes the FDA has already acknowledged the VP4 can sterilize. The US press will be hot on this news. So are and will be the lawyers. Hence, the FDA is so slow and deliberate with this. The VP4 is truly going to disrupt this entire low temp industry. It is only a small matter if time. And, patience. Any day now...
