Sage Nose to Toes

We can help you address bacteria in the nares, in the oral cavity, and on the skin, which are risk factors for Surgical Site Infections (SSIs). Our clinically proven systems can help standardize your pre-op approach for maximum efficiency and enhanced compliance. Our early prepping systems reduce risk factors for surgical infections consistently and effectively by addressing three reservoirs of bacteria: the nose, the mouth, and the skin.

Nasal prepping

• 3M skin and nasal antiseptic reduces bacterial counts in the nares in one hour, including S. aureus by 99.5%, and maintains the reduction for at least 12 hours
• Convenient, single-dose bottle and two-minute application fits easily into your preoperative process

Oral cleansing

• Two convenient options:

    1) 0.12% Chlorhexidine Gluconate

    2) Corinz Oral Antiseptic and Moisturizer

• Ultra-soft toothbrush contains nylon bristles to gently remove plaque, debris, and oral secretions

Skin prepping (2% Chlorhexidine Gluconate* Cloths)

• The solution remains on the skin to provide antimicrobial activity for up to 6 hours and is effective against a broad spectrum of microorganisms including MRSA, VRE, and Acinetobacter
