This may sounds like a B-movie on the
Sci-Fi Channel, but the Ten antibiotic
resistant bacterial
scare is all too real - one of
several health alerts this year that proved just how vulnerable we
are despite all our scientific know-how and
advances in medicine. Bacteria,
living organism made of one cell has mastered gene manipulation,
enzyme technology, personal defence and technology transfer.
Six Bacteria "ESKAPE" are among the biggest threats infectious diseases
physicians (Medical profession) face today.
Enterococcus faecium,
Staphylococcus aureus,
Klebsiella species,
Acinetobacter baumannii,
Pseudomonas
aeruginosa,
Enterobacter
species are now said to be resistant to
most antibiotics and antiseptics. So "Your
life is in their hands" because doctors are now
debating about
"To Wash or Not To Wash Hand"
Invasive practical procedures,
operations, plastic surgery, transplant surgery, hip or knee
replacement, open heart surgery, bypass and minor surgical
procedures will soon come to a grinding halt. The very technology
we’ve created to help us live more comfortable and, yes, often
healthier lives will turn around and
bite us-hard.
The Number of
disposable medical
products used to perform simple practical
procedures & equipments used in providing
the best health
care has now escalated to catastrophic proportions. Bacteria are
resistant to antibiotics and
antiseptic
lotions used to
prepare skin. Discarded
contaminated hospital waste is also helping to spread antibiotic
resistant bacteria in hospitals and the community.
Our mission is to provide the best possible
available health care products & equipment to ease technique, reduce
stress and
trauma. By reducing wastage due to failed
attempts to introduce intra vascular cannula, catheters and
endotracheal tube
& equipments we could stop bacterial colonization, spread and
environmental pollution.
We have developed three new products and
technology for use in the hospitals
to help reduce the threat of antibiotic resistant bacterial
infections in the hospitals.
Our aim is to improve upon an existing
technology, by designing to serve a need that is clearly defined
and acknowledged by medical professionals. Each technology will
fill a current need in medical procedure by improving upon an
existing technology or device. Each product shall appeal to a
caring healthcare workers.
Most countries are struggling to offer
comprehensive health care to their populations. The way doctors
perform practical procedures must therefore undergo drastic changes in
order to reduce spreading infections that threaten our profession
and our very existance.
Recent publications in medical journals &
tabloid press claim
MRSA infection rate has declined by 50%.
The decline is only in intensive care because of meticulous care
of long lines and catheters. The infection rate in
hospitals has been increasing and is said to
be 26%.
Politicians promise changes, and are keen to
implement them, but are unable to deliver. We are thinking ahead
and working towards changing theoretical idealism into practical
reality. Our team of experts have performed these practical
procedures for almost forty years and are now determined to bring in changes to protect
their profession and their patients.
We perform these practical procedures and
managed patients every
day and now feel it is
un-ethical to introduce infections,
inflict pain and discomfort to our patients. Medifix is to bring
in changes, challenging but with passion to provide better health
care and delivery to our trusted patients.
