Enhancing Safety in Clinical Practice: Cross-Sectional, Within-Subjects, Simulated-Use Compliance Study Using BD PosiFlush SafeScrub
The BD PosiFlush SafeScrub, with its integrated disinfection unit, yielded approximately double the scrub-the-hub compliance (34%) before flushing compared to the standard practice of alcohol pads and prefilled saline syringes (17%), supporting its role in facilitating adherence to ANTT, which may reduce microbial growth.
