Sage 2% Chlorhexidine Gluconate* (CHG) Cloths
Maximize efficiency with 6 cloths in 1 package and improve compliance to protocol.
Bacteria on the skin puts your patients at risk
Preventing infection is a real challenge. The CDC implicates eight pathogens that cause 80% of the most common healthcare-acquired infections (HAIs).1 Our skin-friendly, easy to use CHG cloths are fast-acting, broad-spectrum, and alcohol-free, and our 2% CHG stays on your patient’s skin to address bacteria and drive outcomes.
SSI is a primary threat to your surgical patients
2-5% of all surgeries lead to a surgical site infection (SSI) at an annual cost of between $3.5 and $10 billion.2 Surgical site infections are in most cases preventable when the patient and hospital staff members adhere to proper prevention practices.3 Our clinically proven cloths standardize your pre-op approach for maximum efficiency and enhanced compliance.
