We've rethought the PICC from the inside out.
ArrowEVOLUTION with Chlorag+ard technology
The only peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) that provides broad-spectrum antimicrobial protection1
The application of Chlorag+ard utilizes a proprietary process whereby chlorhexidine is chemically bonded to the catheter surface, providing a controlled release of the antimicrobial agent. Chlorag+ard is designed to reduce colonization of pathogens responsible for causing central line–associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs).
Chlorag+ard technology complements your facility's efforts toward attaining and sustaining zero CLABSIs by protecting the catheter surfaces where pathogens attach.
Chlorag+ard technology raises protection to a new standard
Meets the latest stringent regulatory requirements for antimicrobial devices and achieves a 4-log10 reduction, with only 1 in 10,000 surviving organisms.1
Comparison of log reduction in pathogens
| Base-10 logarithmic system | Reduction | Surviving organisms | Examples |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1-log reduction | 90% | 1 in 10 | NA |
| 2-log reduction | 99% | 1 in 100 | NA |
| 3-log reduction | 99.9% | 1 in 1000 | ChloraPrep® |
| 4-log reduction | 99.99% | 1 in 10,000 | Chlorag+ard* |
* Chlorag+ard and ChloraPrep provide effective antimicrobial protection in different environments.
Proven protection, both inside and outside of the lumen
