A letter from our CEO, Nick
In 2001, I witnessed firsthand the devastating impact of catheter-related bloodstream infections while caring for my medically fragile foster child (later adopted). His reliance on a central venous line underscored the critical importance of strict sterile technique in all IV medication handling. This experience, coupled with my nursing background and subsequent career as a nurse anesthetist, fueled my passion for patient safety and infection prevention.
As an anesthesia provider, I observed a concerning lack of awareness among colleagues regarding the potential for infection transmission during IV medication preparation and administration. This gap in knowledge and practice poses a significant risk to patients undergoing anesthesia. While the healthcare community is gradually acknowledging the need for stricter protocols, the anesthesia culture has yet to fully embrace the nursing paradigm of meticulous IV medication handling.
Driven by my personal experience and professional observations, I, along with my business partner (who possesses expertise in the catheter medical product industry), have developed novel solutions to mitigate the risk of IV medication contamination. Our patented portfolio aims to protect patients from accidental or negligent contamination during anesthesia procedures, aligning with current best practices while anticipating the evolving needs of future, more complex patient care and infusion systems.
My journey – from a parent grappling with the challenges of caring for a medically fragile child to an anesthesia provider committed to improving patient safety – has instilled in me a deep understanding of the profound impact of meticulous infection prevention. I believe our innovations have the potential to significantly enhance patient safety within the peri-operative settings and beyond.
