    The number of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) caused by resistant gram-negative pathogens has risen sharply in recent years. Medical water filters using the latest technologies are highly beneficial both in the acute control of outbreaks and in the prevention of nosocomial infections.

    They form a barrier between the patient and contaminated drinking water. All waterassociated bacteria are retained. The evidence for disposable Point-of-Use water filters has been extensively documented by numerous scientists in recent years.

    Request Information

    This disposable water filter is a CE-marked Class I medical device and fulfils all the requirements of the EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR).

    Use of the filter prevents possible infections, such as pneumonia, inflammation of the urinary tract, postoperative wound infections or infections of the bloodstream. These infections are caused by waterborne (gram-negative) pathogens such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa or Legionella pneumophila and can have significant adverse consequences in immunocompromised or immunosuppressed patients.

    The filter is used for targeted infection prevention within the meaning of Section 23 Paragraph 3 of the German Infection Protection Act [IfSG] and is employed at the shower Point-of-Use for cleansing wounds, washing patients and surgical hand washing, and is utilized where patients, users and third parties run the risk of possible exposure to opportunistic and obligate pathogens.

    The TWO connect has a quick-release connector which permits rapid and secure changes of filter on the shower hose.

    Information about the relevant quick-release couplings and adapters is available in the Accessories Catalog under the Accessories tab.
