Avatech Antimicrobial Bedding Protects Seniors from MRSA in Elderly Home Trial

In the realm of elderly care, the health and safety of residents are paramount. With weakened immune systems, seniors are more susceptible to infections, making hygiene a top priority. It is with great pride that we share the positive and promising performance of Avatech antimicrobial bedding at one of the largest elderly homes in Hong Kong, a 2-month trial that has demonstrated the profound impact of our product on enhancing the living conditions of the elderly.

The Trial: Setting a New Standard in Elderly Care

The trial involved the use of Avatech's antimicrobial bedding, which includes a pillowcase, bedsheet, and blanket cover, in rooms of 13 senior residents, some of whom were carriers of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), a bacterium responsible for several difficult-to-treat infections. The objective was clear: to evaluate the effectiveness of Avatech bedding in reducing the presence of MRSA and respiratory pathogens in a real-world care setting.

Striking Results: A Testament to Avatech's Efficacy

The findings were nothing short of remarkable. In rooms with regular bedding, 60% of bedding surface samples tested positive for MRSA and respiratory pathogens. In stark contrast, rooms outfitted with Avatech antimicrobial bedding showed no traces of these harmful microorganisms. The implications of these results are profound, not only for infection control but also for the overall well-being of the elderly residents.

Furthermore, among MRSA carriers using regular bedding, 25% had MRSA present on their bedding. However, for MRSA carriers who slept in Avatech-protected beds, the rate was an astonishing 0%. This stark difference underscores the effectiveness of Avatech's antimicrobial technology in creating a barrier against microbial contamination.

The Impact: Beyond the Numbers

The success of the Avatech bedding trial is not just reflected in the statistics; it translates into tangible benefits for the elderly residents. Our proprietary technology not only provides a safeguard against pathogens but also ensures the longevity of the fabric, maintaining its protective properties even after multiple washes. Engineered with comfort and cutting-edge antimicrobial technology in mind, Avatech bedding contributes to a safer, more hygienic and comfortable living environment. This peace of mind is invaluable for both the residents and their caregivers, who can rest easier knowing that the risk of cross-contamination is greatly diminished.

The Avatech Promise: A Commitment to Excellence

The successful trial at the elderly center is just the beginning. We will continue to observe and measure the performance while improving the product design. Avatech is poised to transform the landscape of hygiene in care facilities around the world. We invite you to join us in this journey towards a cleaner, safer future for our seniors.
