Hypermedical, Inc.’s Portable, Dual- mode, Large-area Ultra-Violet Germicidal device (UVG) Reduces Hospital- Acquired Infections and Pandemics Transmissions in Public Areas. Dual-mode: Open mode to kills germs on surface, Closed mode to kill germs in the air.

Portable UVG Sanitizing Machine in operating Room

UVG sanitizes O.R. in 5 to 10 minutes

UVG reduces hospital-acquired infections

UVG kills 99.9% of germs within 10 feet in under 10 minutes

Special Deal to Hospitals One month free trial use. Use this portable, high-output unit in operating rooms, ICU rooms, ER, regular patient rooms, MRSA, VRE, and isolation patient rooms. Hospitals are encouraged to do own infectious disease testing, exposing known number of bacterial colonies on petri dishes facing the light for minutes and count the colonies later to prove the efficacy of UVG machine, which kills 99.9 % of germs per UNLV test. If hospitals decide to keep using the machine the lease is $3,000 per month

Ultra-Violet Germicidal (UVG) Device Hospital-acquired infection costs the hospitals in the US an average of $90,000 per case. In the US, there are over 35,000 healthcare facilities with over 150,000 cases of serious hospital-acquired infections. Global market is at least twice that of US. UVG device (see picture) kills 99.9% of surface germs at 10 feet in 10 minutes in open mode or kills air-borne germs continuously in air-filtering closed mode.

UVG machine prevents air-borne infection In the closed mode, UV light shines internally to kill germs and virus in the air, which is pulled through the central core by a powerful fan, cleansing 3000 cubic feet of room air every minute, continuously.

UVG kills 99.9% of surface germs within 10 feet in 10 minutes In the open mode, UVG kills 99.9% of germs on surface within 10 feet of the light tube in less than 10 minutes. UVG effectively prevents infections in operating rooms and in patient rooms. UVG reduces hospital- acquired infections.

EFFECTIVENESS OF A PORTABLE ULTRAVIOLET GERMICIDAL SANITIZING MACHINE by Mark P. Buttner, Ph.D. and Patricia Cruz, Ph.D. Associate Professors School of Community Health Sciences University of Nevada, Las Vegas 4505 South Maryland Parkway Las Vegas, Nevada August 2, 2011

UNLV Lab Test Result

UNLV Test Result Interpretation Notice the crescent-shaped areas on the right side of each petri dish where the bacterial colonies survive. That is due to the shadowing effect of the wall of the petri dishes when the dishes are placed on flat surfaces away from the UV light. When not blocked by the petri dish wall, the bacterial colony count reduction is 99.9 %.
