Bactiguard’s infection control portfolio to Malaysia

A few months ago Bactiguard proudly announced that they signed distributors in Poland, Romania, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Slovenia. Bactiguard is with Malaysia now present in over 35 countries worldwide.

Johan Rugfelt, Senior Vice President of Bactiguard: “As in all parts of the world, Healthcare Acquired Infections (HAI) is a problem also in Malaysian hospitals. With our unique solution, the Bactiguard coating, we will be able to reduce HAI’s in Malaysia, thereby reducing the use of antibiotics, improve patient safety and save money. We are very much looking forward to working with Acucare systems and together we will not only save money, we will also save lives in Malaysia”.

The Bactiguard® coating has been applied to urinary catheters in the U.S. since 1995. Over 125 million Bactiguard coated catheters have been used in clinical practice all over the world. The Bactiguard technology consists of an extremely thin noble metal coating which reduces bacterial adhesion and is biocompatible.
