Innovation at your fingertips
Nanosonics has released a new advanced version of the trophon2 software to drive further improvement in patient safety in ultrasound reprocessing.
With more than 1820 trophon® units already installed within healthcare settings across the UK and Europe, Nanosonics has invested significantly in direct sales and service support, across Europe, including expert clinical specialists. This has allowed the company to be closer to more customers and ensure high- quality, end-to-end support for end users. Approximately 90,000 people are protected worldwide each day from the risk of cross- contamination with Nanosonics’ patented trophon technology. The company’s innovative technologies, which include the leading trophon solution, are improving patient safety in ultrasound reprocessing by preventing the transmission of infections. Significant investment in establishing UK & Europe-based operations demonstrates not only confidence in the future of automated High-Level Disinfection (HLD) for ultrasound probes but also the significance of being close to customers. Nanosonics’ trophon device is recognised as a leading automated HLD solution for transvaginal, transrectal, and surface probes, which is supported by guidelines and the Spaulding classification – encouraging not only HLD for semi-critical probes, but also automation. Today, this H202 based technology has reached a significant level of implementation and recognition based on its demonstrated efficacy and safety. The new advanced trophon2 upgrade has been developed based on customer feedback to improve user experience. This new version will bring several benefits to users, with the release of a simplified workflow, reducing the number of clicks and screen interactions, a customisable traceability feature allowing users to tailor their organisation’s policies and select the level of detail required – and, finally, WiFi enabled connectivity will be available outside

of the network connection already deployed. All these improvements will provide even more flexibility to customers, enabling them to easily adapt the settings of the machine to suit their individual needs, while instilling confidence that they are delivering a gold standard of care. Clinical expertise and training are also part
of the Nanosonics product offering, helping healthcare sites to look at the full high-level disinfection process and providing advice on how to implement a robust and reliable process, including: how to integrate trophon2, probe compatibility advice, choosing the correct pre-cleaning products, storage methods, and traceability best practices. This comprehensive support package includes:
on-site training, industry-led study days, online learning and a range of supportive tools such as the IP toolkit. The IP toolkit, available free of charge, is product agnostic and helps infection prevention staff locate all ultrasound machines in their facility, conduct risk assessments, and develop or improve reprocessing policies. Taking into account key considerations around
automation, traceability, safety, and workflows, point-of-care reprocessing of ultrasound probes can help protect patients from infection risk. In addition to the trophon device, Nanosonics
also offers a range of additional products to cover the total reprocessing solution, including: AuditPro, a digital traceability tool, and a full portfolio of accessories that support best practice reprocessing between each patient, supported by a team of experts and services deployed locally.
