Multicenter evaluation of bacterial contamination of glucose test strips.
In the U.S., healthcare-associated infections lengthen the average hospital stay by up to 19 days and increase costs by approximately $43,000 per hospitalization [1]. The prevalence of blood contamination of hospital glucose meters has been reported to be 30.2±17.5%; an increase in the number of operators increases the odds of contamination [2]. Blood glucose monitoring devices have been associ...
متن کاملEconomic and microbiologic evaluation of single-dose vial extension for hazardous drugs.
PURPOSE The update of US Pharmacopeia Chapter <797> in 2008 included guidelines stating that single-dose vials (SDVs) opened and maintained in an International Organization for Standardization Class 5 environment can be used for up to 6 hours after initial puncture. A study was conducted to evaluate the cost of discarding vials after 6 hours and to further test sterility of vials beyond this ti...
متن کاملdevelopment of different optical methods for determination of glucose using cadmium telluride quantum dots and silver nanoparticles
a simple, rapid and low-cost scanner spectroscopy method for the glucose determination by utilizing glucose oxidase and cdte/tga quantum dots as chromoionophore has been described. the detection was based on the combination of the glucose enzymatic reaction and the quenching effect of h2o2 on the cdte quantum dots (qds) photoluminescence.in this study glucose was determined by utilizing glucose...
[Economic evaluation of treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia--transurethral resection vs thermotherapy vs laser vaporization].
OBJECTIVE Cost containment has become an important issue in medical practice because of recent bad economic conditions. We analyzed the cost of benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH) patients and cost-effective analysis was carried out comparing transurethral resection of prostate (TURP), visual laser ablation of the prostate (VLAP) and transurethral microwave thermotherapy (TUMT). MATERIALS & ME...
متن کاملPerformance and storage of reagent strips for measuring blood glucose.
Performance and storage of reagent strips for measuring blood glucose Use of reagent strips to monitor blood glucose concentrations in diabetic patients, with or without a glucose meter, is gaining in popularity. Favourable performance of the recently introduced Boehringer BM Test Glycemie 20-800 strips has been reported.'-4 We compared Boehringer strips and Dextrostix (Ames) with laboratory me...
