  • “Coming to the Light: Impact of Ultraviolet Technology on Incidence of Pseudomonas in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.” This poster is based on findings from the Women’s Hospital in Newburgh, Ind., which implemented the Clorox Healthcare Optimum-UV System in addition to its existing infection control measures in its NICUs.
  • “Evaluating the Efficacy of UV Technology in Acute Care.” This poster shows the performance of the Optimum-UV System in two hospitals when used in tandem with manual surface disinfection protocol.
