What’s his truck stop strategy? Is he also working on 3-D printing his pizzas? Alas, we’ll never know, but credit to Mark Cuban for suggesting he focus on “being the godfather of the on-demand economy” and to Barbara for trying to rein in Johnny Drama Sr. He’s in grocery stores but also moving big into on-demand grocers such as Fresh Direct and maybe Amazon Fresh.
He’s selling whole pies and pizza by the slice. He’s got the restaurants and now the frozen business. Vinnie Boombotz, who’s been doing this for like a year, does seem all over the place. But, we MUST NOT (yes, I am shouting) introduce new technology without considering the ramifications inherent with the device.There’s actually an interesting conversation here-well, not actually on the show, but in my head while watching-about focus versus opportunity. New technology will always be a part of the healthcare environment. One rule does not fit all as high risk areas such as operating rooms, ICU and the burn units should have stricter guidelines. Recommendations to reduce contamination risks include staff education, strict hand hygiene, guidelines on device cleaning and restrictions where the use of mobile technology is allowed. A study by Gerba found that nearly one third of shoes (27%) carry E.coli, indicating frequent contact with fecal material, likely originating from floors in public restrooms or contact with animal material outdoors. It only takes a couple of weeks for a pair of shoes to collect high counts of bacteria. Mobile devices are not the only fomites bringing bacteria to our workplace.
#IPHONE CLEANER SHARK TANK REGISTRATION#
Even sign in screens at patient registration require a finger or a shared stylus to confirm patient information. But, items such as an iPad or a touchscreen computer share their germs, even if staff are gloved. A cell phone used by one person carries a single set of germs that should not make the owner sick. It’s the sharing of devices that provide the cross-contamination. Frequency did not indicate levels of bacteria reduction, but one study identified that surgeons and surgical personnel carried more bacteria than other physicians. Many studies evaluated the frequency of cleaning and found varying results. Cleaning methods vary widely from alcohol wipes to cleaning cloths. They travel into secure areas with the hospital staff, cleaning staff, medical sales persons and family. difficile can live and accumulate on the mobile device. But we also know that norovirus, MRSA and c. The most common isolated microorganisms are coagulase-negative staphylococci and Staphylococcus aureus.
The device is pricey ranging from $50-$70 online.ĭocumented studies in ICU, surgery and NICU show the mobile hand held device the culprit of unwanted bacteria. Using UV light, Phone Soap, advertises compatibility with various cell phone vendors.
#IPHONE CLEANER SHARK TANK TV#
One new device for decontamination was seen on the TV show Shark Tank recently. Even cleaning and disinfecting will not decontaminate a mobile device completely. It seems we seldom clean and disinfect because we are unsure of the type of products or methods that would be effective and safe for the devices. There are multiple studies that document the frequent contamination of mobile hand held devices with healthcare-associated pathogens. Most of the germs that cause disease come from items we touch and these items get less cleaning than our toilets. It is a given and recorded fact that many items we touch every day, from cell phones to our shoes, have far more germs than our toilets. The nurse did “glove up” but the next patient was exposed to whatever nasty germs (never defined by medical sources) we had at the time. The nurse then collected the iPad and completed his portion of the information. As we were escorted into the treatment room, we were presented with an iPad to complete multiple screens of medical history, demographics, insurance information, and current symptomology. This urgent request was from our primary care physician via phone. To receive a confirmation nose swab on a Friday afternoon at 4:30 PM. Just recently my husband and I had a really bad encounter with the flu.
