| I was privileged recently to test a (germcontrol™)
disinfectant machine at our dermatologic office in Lexington,
Kentucky. Mr. William K., your consultant, was kind enough to allow
me and my staff to use this remarkable unit for two weeks, and frankly, we
liked it so much that he almost had to fight us for re-possession of
it! He solicited and encouraged our negative feedback, but we have
practically none.
I was worried about using such a machine, because, as a dermatologist
dealing daily with all types of hand eczema and rashes of the upper
extremity, I though such gel/foam, waterless formulations would dry the
hand excessively. I am happy to report that not only did the unit
not aggravate rashes, but it actually seemed to leave our hands softer
after using it!
The emollient "feel" of the solution was impressing! We
really enjoyed the usage of the machine and the apparent increased
cleanliness of the "no hands," touchless dispensing. That
was especially appreciated by our female staff members, and one of them
remarked that one could virtually pay for the unit by the savings of paper
towels needed to dry that hands with conventional washing. In
addition, (the) bactericidal agent, isopropyl alcohol, has a
broader spectrum, and does not promote resistance to antibiotics, a growing
problem with organisms today, i.e. staph.
Again, I would like to thank you and your exceptionally fine consultant,
Bill K., for his thorough explanation of the unit and the disinfection
process.
We loved your unit... Thank you very much!
Sincerely,
Joseph B., M.D. |
