The trophon® EPR is an automated, validated High-Level Disinfection system for ultrasound probes that's fast, easy to use, environmentally friendly and quality assured.
Within a 7min cycle trophon EPR produces a H2O2-based mist which offers bactericidal, fungicidal and virucidal disinfection. Automated documentation is achieved via IT-Interface.
Environmentally friendly by-products are H2O2 and O2. Material compatibility has been confirmed by most ultrasound probe manufacturers. Current status quo in Germany is the manual disinfection with wipes or disinfection by immersion. Most wipes offer only limited virucidal efficacy or bear the risk of non-compliance with obligatory contact times. Generally, manual procedures are difficult to validate. Recent studies have shown a potential risk of cross contamination through transvaginal ultrasound probes.
