Automated Room Disinfection

The Problem: The Inefficiency of Manual Cleaning

Standard terminal cleaning for patient rooms is a time-consuming, labour-intensive process fraught with the risk of human error. It can take hours to manually disinfect a room, creating operational bottlenecks and leaving behind resilient pathogens in hard-to-reach areas. This downtime reduces bed availability and fails to provide a guaranteed level of safety.

The Solution: How ASEPT-1X MAX™ Works

The ASEPT-1X MAX™ system, co-developed by Prescientx partners, is a patented, automated solution that solves this problem.

  • Occupancy-Based: Using smart sensors, the system knows when a room becomes vacant.
  • Automated UV-C Cycle: It automatically begins a pre-programmed cycle of powerful UV-C light, disinfecting both air and all line-of-sight surfaces simultaneously.
  • Rapid & Effective: The cycle is completed in minutes, neutralizing over 99.9% of dangerous pathogens like C. diff, MRSA, and VRE before the next patient or staff member enters.
