PL Medical has developed GuideBlade™ technology to help reduce the incidence of bloodstream infections (BSI). GuideBlade™ streamlines central line placement and minimizes the disruption of skin integrity. The density of skin flora at the insertion site and interruption of central venous catheter placement technique are major risk factors for CVC related BSI.
Attention to the proper selection of safety scalpel material, selection of cannula size and blade geometry ensures the proper alignment of the blade with the respect to the guide wire. GuideBlade™ technology minimizes the size of the skin insertion site and reduces the instances of skin-tags. The technology ensures the integrity of the wire and the sharp safety is maintained. This technology maintains all the current procedures currently followed by the healthcare providers.
