The Solution is an automated disinfection system designed to reduce cross-infections in healthcare environments through the use of blue light technology. This system includes a smart control module that automates the disinfection process, allowing for continuous operation without the need for manual input from hospital staff. The technology was tested in hospital settings where it successfully demonstrated its ability to significantly lower microbial loads on surfaces, particularly those directly exposed to the blue light. This confirms its effectiveness in improving hygienic conditions and potentially reducing healthcare-associated infections. The system is scalable and suitable for broader application in various healthcare contexts, making it a promising tool for enhancing patient safety by minimizing the risk of infections.
