Friction
Site-Scrub® IPA Device helps you comply with the CDC Guidelines and INS Standards of Practice that recommend the use of a friction scrub to disinfect catheter hubs.
Friction Scrub
Utilizes a Twist and Scrub motion
- Twist the Site-Scrub® IPA Device back and forth 8 times for 10 seconds.
- Remove the Site-Scrub® IPA Device and discard as per facility protocol.
- Allow hub to dry for a minimum of 5 seconds.
Warning: Do not leave the Site-Scrub® IPA Device on a needleless cap or female Luer hub after disinfecting.
CDC 2011 Guidelines
"Minimize contamination risk by scrubbing the access port with an appropriate antiseptic (chlorhexidine, povidone iodine, an iodophor, or 70% alcohol) and accessing the port only with sterile devices."
- 2011 CDC Guidelines, Category IA
What is a Category 1A?
Per CDC: Category 1A: Strongly recommended for implementation and supported by well-designed experimental, clinical, or epidemiologic studies.
INS SOP 2011
"The nurse should disinfect the ports of the add-on device using friction, with an appropriate disinfectant such as 70% alcohol before accessing. Specific guidelines directing the appropriate technique, disinfectant, or amount of time required to clean devices prior to access are unresolved."

Speed
The results of in vitro antimicrobial efficacy showed that Site-Scrub® IPA device is effective for significantly reducing on average ≥99.999% microbial load of the following organisms in 15 seconds: Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Staphylococcus epidermidis (MRSE), Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Candida parapsilosis, Candida albicans.1
Following a 10 second friction scrub and 5 second dry on a needleless injection cap, Site-Scrub® IPA Device provided a similar Log reduction on 4 of the 6 microbes tested as compared to disinfecting with the SwabCap™ disinfecting cap for a minimum 5 minutes. 1
Scrub and Go!
Patent-pending foam "fingers" design with 70% isopropyl alcohol indicated for 8x back-and-forth scrub over 10-seconds, 5-second dry.

Efficacy
The results of in vitro antimicrobial efficacy testing showed that Site-Scrub® IPA device is effective for significantly reducing on average ≥99.999% (≥5 Log10) microbial load of the following microbes, which are known to be associated with catheter line-associated blood stream infections (CLABSI):1
Note: Clinical studies of the Site-Scrub® IPA Device to evaluate reduction in infection have not been performed.

Disinfection of female Luer hubs using an alcohol wipe and Site-Scrub® IPA Device
The Site-Scrub® IPA device was tested at an independent testing laboratory versus an alcohol prep pad in an in vitro antimicrobial efficacy assay for disinfecting female Luer hubs. The Site-Scrub® IPA device reduced on average ≥99.999% (≥5 Log10) of the viable microbes tested from the female Luer surfaces, compared to only 28% (0.14 Log10) on average reduced by the IPA wipe.1
Site-Scrub® IPA device vs. IPA wipe
Female Luer Hub
Using the Site-Scrub® IPA device on female Luers resulted in a statistically significant reduction in microbial load compared to the IPA wipe2 (p< 0.001).1
Site-Scrub® IPA Device provided a ≥99.999% (≥5 Log10) reduction on average. The IPA wipe reduced the microbial population on Luers by an average of 28% (0.14 Log10).1
2 When compared to the untreated controls, the IPA wipe reduced the microbial population on Luers by an average of 28% (0.14 Log10), compared to Site-Scrub® IPA Device which reduced the population by greater than ≥99.999% (≥5 Log10). The Site-Scrub® was statistically better than the IPA wipe (p<= 0.001).
